Question

A cuboid is 9 cm long, 5 cm broad and 4 cm high and a cube has an edge of 9 cm which one has greater volume

Answer 1

Volume of a cuboid = l x b x h

= 9 x 5 x 4 = 180 cm^3

Volume of a cube = side x side x side

= 9 x 9 x 9 = 729 cm^3

729 is greater than 180

Therefore, volume of cuboid is greater

Answer 2

For cuboid:-

l = 9 cm

b = 5 cm

h = 4cm

Volume of cuboid = l × b × h

= 9 × 5 × 4

= 180 cubic cm

For cube:-

side = 9 cm

Volume of cube =

${(side)}^{3} \\ \\ = {9}^{3} \\ \\ = 729 \: cubic \: \: cm$

So, clearly the cube has greater volume.

Hope it helps.
