Cambria was building various cuboids from 1×1×1 cubes. She initially built one cuboid, then increased its length and width by 1 and reduced its height by 2. She then understood that she needs the same number of 1×1×1 cubes to build both the original and new cuboids. Prove that the number of cubes used for each of the cuboids is divisible by 3.
