In $\mathbb{R}^3$, for a rectangular box $\Delta$, let $10\Delta$ be the box with the same center as $\Delta$ but dilated by $10$. For example, if $\Delta$ is an $1 \times 1 \times 10$ box (hence with Lebesgue measure $10$), then $10\Delta$ is the $10 \times 10 \times 100$ box with the same center and orientation as $\Delta$. \medskip If two rectangular boxes $\Delta_1$ and $\Delta_2$ satisfy $\Delta_1 \subset 10\Delta_2$ and $\Delta_2 \subset 10 \Delta_1$, we say that they are [i]almost identical[/i].
