Optimization with multiple variables

I was playing modded Minecraft and started wondering what the optimal dimensions for a multi block were; the multi block is basically a cube without corners (I'll attach a screenshot) and without the top surface with an empty interior, kinda like a bowl, and the value to optimize for Is the internal volume; what I was thinking of doing was get a constraint for the cost in blocks and use that to get the height in function of width and length, then derive by one of these 2 the volume (the number of blocks is a constant) and get the optimized length (or width) at a given width (or length), then substitute that so you get the volume in function of one variable and the constant max blocks and derive again to get the optimized value, but I feel like this isn't correct cause you are considering a variable like it is a constant and I don't think that would work, not sure though, what is the correct way to approach this and where is my approach wrong?

Is this a good upgrade plan?

I have a i7 3770k PC in which I put an rtx3070 (needed an upgrade on the graphics card and thought it made sense to prepare for when I upgraded the CPU). now I have a budget of around 200 euros to upgrade CPU Mobo and ram, obviously buying used (I'm in Italy if that matters). I was thinking about getting a ryzen 5 5600, 2x8gb ram sticks and a b450 Mobo, is this a good plan?

Grub doesn't read keyboard

ever since I got a Corsair k70 core I basically can't use grub: it just usually does nothing when I press on the keyboard, which starts working once it gets to the os (either win or Linux). if I'm able to get to the bios or boot selection (which is only sometimes) and then select Linux (I have fedora) I can then use grub, but I'm not sure if the times I manage to enter the bios I would also just be able to use grub; what should I do?

Probability question

I had a question in an exam that was pretty easy to answer with decomposition but I feel like it can be answered without doing any calculations: a guy (let's say Bob) had 6 bars he can go to, but of these only 4 of them also sell tobacco, for 5 days he goes to a bar, but he will never go to a bar he has already been to, what's the probability that on the second day he goes to a bar that sells tobacco? Decomposition is obviously easy for the question as posed, but not so much if the question was about the fifth day, that's why I wonder if there's a more "theoretical" answer. I hope everything is explained plainly, English is not my first language
