Question

An alumni container is made up of 2.5 cm thick aluminum. If the outer length breadth nd height of the box are 25cm 18cm 16cm f in nd the volume of container

Answer 1

Volume of the container is 3510 $cm^3$

According to question,

Outer Dimensions of the container:

Length = 25 cm

Breadth = 18 cm

Height = 16 cm

Inner dimensions:

Length = 25 - 2.5 - 2.5 = 20 cm (as it is two of the walls)

Breadth = 18 - 2.5 - 2.5 = 13 cm (as it is two of the walls)

Height = 16 - 2.5 = 13.5 cm (as it is just the base)

Therefore, using inner dimensions of the container,

Volume of the container=

L x B x H

= 20 x 13 x 13.5

= 3510 $cm^3$
