2023 AIME II Problem 14

A cube-shaped container has vertices A, B, C, and D, where \overline{AB} and \overline{CD} are parallel edges of the cube, and \overline{AC} and \overline{BD} are diagonals of faces of the cube, as shown. Vertex A of the cube is set on a horizontal plane \mathcal{P} so that the plane of the rectangle ABDC is perpendicular to \mathcal{P}, vertex B is 2 meters above \mathcal{P}, vertex C is 8 meters above \mathcal{P}, and vertex D is 10 meters above \mathcal{P}. The cube contains water whose surface is parallel to \mathcal{P} at a height of 7 meters above \mathcal{P}. The volume of water is \frac{m}{n} cubic meters, where m and n are relatively prime positive integers. Find m + n.
