Question

A cuboidal box measures 4 cm by 2.5 cm by 1.5 cm. What will be the volume of a cardboard box
containing 12 such cuboidal boxes ? How many such cardboard boxes can be placed in a carton whose
size is 1.2 m by 74 cm by 60 cm?​​

Answer 1

Answer:

2,960 cardboard boxes of the given measurements can be placed in the carton .

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cardboard boxes that can be placed in the carton = Volume of the carton ÷ Volume of one cardboard box

= ( 120cm × 74cm × 60cm ) ÷ [ 12 ( 4cm × 2.5cm × 1.5cm ) ]

= 532,800cm³ ÷ [ 12 × 15cm³ ]

= 532,800cm³ ÷ 180cm³

= 2,960

Answer 2

Answer:

volume of the carton ÷ volume of one cardboard box

(120cm × 74cm × 60 cm ) ÷ [12 (4cm × 2.5 cm × 1.5cm)

532800 cm3 ÷ [12× 15 cm3 ]

532800 cm3 ÷ 180cm3

2960cm3
