Question has already been posted. Anyway since is it urgent:

You have the ratio of the carton -- 3:2:2 i.e. if the length is 3a, the width and height each would be 2a. So, the volume will be 3a*2a*2a = 12a^3.

Given 12a^3 = x, from which you get a = (cube root of x/12).

You need the height, which is 2a. You get 2*(cube root of x/12). Take 2 inside and simplify-- you will get B.
