Question

A box is 1.8 m long, 80cm wide and 60cm high. How many soap cakes of dimensions 6 cm by 4.5 cm by 40 mm can be put into it?

Answer 1

Answer:

⇒8000

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the box $(l)=1.8m=180cm$

Breadth of the box $(b)=80cm$

Height of the box $(h)=60cm$

Volume of the box=$l×b×h$

$→180×80×60cm³$

$→864000cm³$

Length of the soap cake=$6cm$

Breadth of the soap cake=$4.5cm$

Height of the soap cake=$40mm=4cm$

Volume of the one soap cake=$6×4.5×4cm³=108cm³$

∴Required number of soap cakes

$→\frac{volume of the box}{volume of the one soap cake}$

$→\frac{864000}{108}$

$→\huge\boxed{8000}$

Hence,

8000 soap cakes can be packed in the box....
