A book is 24 cm long , 14 cm wide and 2 cm high. What is the volume of 12 such books piled
on top of the other?
Answers
Volume of a cuboid = lbh
where, l is the length, b is the breadth/width, and h is the height.
Given, length is 24 cm, breadth/width is 14 cm, and height is 2 cm
According to the formula,
Volume of the book
ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠㅤㅤㅤ= lbh
ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠㅤㅤㅤ= ( 24 × 14 × 2 ) cubic.cm
ㅤᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠㅤㅤㅤ= 672 cubic.cm
The volume of 12 such books is 12 times 672 which is 8064 cubic.cm .
- A book is 24 cm long , 14 cm wide and 2 cm high.
- The volume of 12 such books piled on top of the other.
We have the dimensions of book ,
- Length = 24 cm
- Width = 14 cm
- Height = 2 cm
The books are rectangular in shape. So, it's 3D figure is cuboid.
The volume of 12 books = 12 × Volume of 1 Book
Volume of 1 Book = Volume of cuboid
We know, that the Volume of cuboid = L × B × H
➝ Volume of 1 Book = L × B × H
➝ 24 × 14 × 2
➝ 336 × 2
➝ 672 cm³
The volume of 12 books = 12 × Volume of 1 Book
➝ 12 × 672
➝ 8064 cm³
The volume of 12 such books piled on top of the other is 8064 cm³ .
