Required Answer :
The number of bricks required to make the wall = 128,000
Given :
Dimensions of bricks :
- Length of the bricks = 25 cm
- Breadth of the bricks = 12.5 cm
- Height of the bricks = 7.5 cm
Dimensions of wall :
- Length of the wall = 5 m
- Breadth of the wall = 3 m
- Height of the wall = 20 m
To find :
- Number of bricks required to make a wall
Solution :
Using formula,
- Volume of bricks = l × b × h
where,
- l denotes the length
- b denotes the breadth
Substituting the given values :
⇒ Volume of bricks = 25 × 12.5 × 7.5
⇒ Volume of bricks = 2,343.75
Volume of bricks = 2,343.75 cm³
Using formula,
- Volume of wall = l × b × h
Substituting the given values :
⇒ Volume of wall = 5 × 3 × 20
⇒ Volume of wall = 300
Volume of wall = 300 m³
As we know,
- 1 m = 100 cm
To convert the value from cm into m, multiply the value by 100.
⇒ Volume of wall = 300 × (100)³
⇒ Volume of wall = 300 × 1000000
⇒ Volume of wall = 300000000
Volume of wall = 3 × 10⁸ cm³
Number of bricks required to make the wall = Volume of wall ÷ Volume of bricks
⇒ Number of bricks = 3 × 10⁸ ÷ 2,343.75
⇒ Number of bricks = 300000000 ÷ 2,343.75
⇒ Number of bricks = 128,000
Therefore, the number of bricks required to make the wall = 128,000
