16 cuts
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
The dimensions of cuboid = 8 * 4 * 7
To get the cube, one needs to cut the length of the cuboid 7 times to get the unit length.
To cut the unit length from breadth, we need to cut it into three parts.
In terms of height, we need to cut in 6 elements.
Thus, total minimum long straight cuts would be = 7 + 3 + 6 = 16 cuts
