Question

how many boxes each of size 10 centimetre into 8 cm into 5 centimetre can be packed in a carton of size 100 cm into 72 cm into 50 cm

Answer 1

BOXES:-

Volume = lbh

             = 10 × 8 × 5

            = 400 cm³

CARTON:-

Volume = 100 × 72 × 50

            = 360000 cm³

∴ No. of boxes to be packed into the carton = Volume of [carton ÷ box]

                                            = 360000 ÷ 400

                                            = 900

∴900 boxes can be packed into the carton.

Answer 2

here you first find volume of the bigger container and then find the volume of the smaller container then divide them...

volume of big container=l×b×h
=100×72×50
=360000 cm^3
volume of the smaller container=l×b×h
=10×8×5
=400cm^3
No of small boxes= 360000/400
= 900
thus, no. of boxes that can be packed into a carton are 900
