Question

120 cans containg paint have a size of 25cm ×25cm × 25cm. The paint is transferred to smaller cans whose base measures 250cmsquare are and height is 12 cm. How many small cans are needed?

Answer 1

^_^


Dimensions of cans = 25 cm , 25 cm , 25 cm .


So ,


Volume of one can = ( 25 ) ³ cm³


= 3125 cm³


Now ,


Volume of 120 cans = 120 * 25 cm³


Another case :-

Area of base of another can = 250 cm²


Height = 12 cm


Volume = 250 * 12 cm³


Let number of required cans be x .


So ,

volume = x * 12 * 250 cm³


A / q ,


x * 250 * 12 = 625 * 25 * 120


=> x * 10 = 10 * 625


=> x = 625

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of bigger can are :-

(25×25×25) cm cube

= 15625 cm cube

Volume of paint in bigger cans

= 15625×120

=1875000 cm cube

Volume of smaller cans :-

Area×Height

= (250×12) cm cube

= 3000 cm cube

Number of cans needed

= 1875000/3000

= 625 cans
