Question

. A rectangular cardboard sheet has length 32 cm and breadth 26 cm. The four squares each of side
3 cm are cut from the corners of the sheet and the sides are folded to make a rectangular container
Find the capacity of the container.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given :

Length = 32 cm

Breadth = 26 cm

Four squares of each side = 3 cm

To Find :

Capacity of the container (Volume).

Calculation :

Firstly, we'll be calculating the inner length & breadth of the container.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

${ \dag \: \: { \underline \frak{Calculating \: for \: length :}}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$: \bf \Longrightarrow \bf (32 - 3 - 3) \: cm \\ \\ \\ : \bf \Longrightarrow \bf \: 29 - 3 \: cm \\ \\ \\ : \bf \Longrightarrow { \boxed{\bf{26 \: cm}}} \: \bigstar$

Therefore, the inner length of the container is 26 cm.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

${ \dag \: \: { \underline \frak{Calculating \: for \: breadth :}}}$

$: \bf \Longrightarrow \bf (26 - 3 - 3) \: cm \\ \\ \\ : \bf \Longrightarrow \bf \: 23 - 3 \: cm \\ \\ \\ : \bf \Longrightarrow { \boxed{\bf{20 \: cm}}} \: \bigstar$

Therefore, the inner breadth of the container is 20 cm.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Also, height of the container is 3 cm.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\dag \: { \underline { \bf{According \: to \: the \: Question, }}}$ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Let's calculate the volume of the container,

Formula to be used :

$\star \boxed{ \sf{ \purple{Volume = length \times breadth \times height }}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Where,

Height ($\pmb{h}$) = 3 cm

Length ($\pmb{l}$) = 26 cm

Length ($\pmb{b}$) = 20 cm

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\dag$ Putting the values,

$: \bf \Longrightarrow \bf \: Volume = l \times \ b \times h \\ \\ \\ : \bf \Longrightarrow \bf \: Volume \: = 26 \times 20 \times 3 \: cm \\ \\ \\ : \bf \Longrightarrow { \boxed{\bf Volume \: = \: 1560 \: cm^3}} \: { \pink{ \bigstar}}$

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

$\therefore$ Hence, the volume of the container is 1560 cm³.
