A wall of length 10 m was to be built across an open ground. The height
of the wall is 4 m and thickness of the wall is 24 cm. If this wall is to be built up with
bricks whose dimensions are 24 cm x 12 cm x 8 cm, how many bricks would be
required?
Answers
Answer:
- 4167 Bricks are required to make the wall (approx.)
Explanation:
Given,
- Length of wall, L = 10 m
- Height of wall, H = 4 m
- Thickness of wall, B = 24 cm = 24/100 m = 0.24 m
- Dimensions of bricks are; 24 cm × 12 cm × 8 cm = 0.24 m × 0.12 m × 0.08 m
Since,
Volume of cuboid = Length × breadth × height
therefore,
→ Volume of Wall = 10 m × 4 m × 0.24 m
and,
→ Volume of each brick = 0.24 m × 0.12 m × 0.08 m
so,
→ Number of brick required = Volume of wall / Volume of each brick
→ No. of brick required = ( 10 m × 4 m × 0.24 m ) / ( 0.24 m × 0.12 m × 0.08 m )
→ No. of brick required = ( 10 m × 4 m ) / ( 0.12 m × 0.08 m )
→ No. of brick required = 4166.67 (Approx.)
That means,
- Number of brick required for making wall is 4167 (Approx.).
Step-by-step explanation:
A wall of length 10 m was to be built across an open ground. The height of the wall is 4 m and thickness of the wall is 24 cm. If this wall is to be built up with bricks whose dimensions are 24 cm x 12 cm x 8 cm, how many bricks would be required?
To find:
how many bricks would be required
Solution:
- formula used
volume = length×Breadth×Height
Length of wall = 10 m = 1000cm
Height of wall = 4 m = 400cm
Breadth or thickness of wall = 24 cm
volume = (1000×400×24)cm^3
Length of brick= 24 cm
Height of brick= 12 cm
Breadth of brick= 8 cm
volume = (24×12×8)cm^3
bricks required =
= 4167 approximately
Bricks required =4167 approximately
