Question

A godown measures 30m×20m×8m. Find the maximum number of wooden crates each measuring 1.2m x 0.8m X 0.5m that can be stored in the godown.

Answer 1

Answer:

no of crates = volume of godown / volume of 1 crate

= 30*20*8/1.2*0.8*0.5

= 10000

Answer 2

Answer:

The godown can have 10,000 crates.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Dimensions of godown = 30m × 20m × 8m

Wooden crates = 1.2m × 0.8m × 0.5m

To find :

The number of crates in the godown

Solution :

Number of crates = $\sf{\frac{Volume\:of\: godown}{Volume\:of\:crate}}$

★ Volume of godown -

⇒ Volume of cuboid = Length × Breadth × Height

⇒ 30 × 20 × 8

⇒ 600 × 8

⇒ 4800 m³

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

★ Volume of one crate -

⇒ Volume of cuboid = Length × Breadth × Height

⇒ 1.2 × 0.8 × 0.5

⇒ 1.2 × 0.4

⇒ 0.48 m³

$\rule{300}{1.5}$

★ Number of crates -

⇒ 4800/0.48

⇒ 480000/48

⇒ 10000

Therefore, the godown can have 10,000 crates.
