Question

1. A cubical box of length 120 cm has to be filled with cubodial books of dimensions 20 cm X 12cm X 6cm.How many such books can be filled in the cubicalbox.Find the volume of cube of edge 24cm.

Answer 1

Answer:

1200 such books can fit in the box.

The volume of cube edge 24 = 24³ = 13824 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the volume of the cubical box.

The volume is given by: 120³ = 1728000 cm³

From here, we get the volume of each of the cubodial books to be placed in the box.

We have: 20 × 12 × 6 = 1440 cm³

To get the number of books that can fit in the box, we take the volume of the cube divided by the volume of each book.

We have:

1728000/1440 = 1200

1200 such books can fit in the box.

The volume of cube edge 24 = 24³ = 13824 cm³
