6 metre wide and 20cm deep?
13 and its perimeter is 150m. Find the area o​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The dimensions of the plank are

Length = 5m = 500cm

Breadth = 25cm

Height = 10cm

We know that

Volume of the plank = l × b × h

By substituting the values

Volume of the plank = 500 × 25 × 10

So we get

Volume of the plank = 125000 cm3

The dimensions of the pit are

Length = 20m = 2000 cm

Breadth = 6m = 600 cm

Height = 80cm

We know that

Volume of one pit = l × b × h

By substituting the values

Volume of one pit = 2000 × 600 × 80

So we get

Volume of one pit = 96000000cm3

So the number of planks that can be stored = Volume of one pit/ Volume of plank

By substituting the values

Number of planks that can be stored = 96000000/125000

So we get

Number of planks that can be stored = 768

Therefore, the number of planks that can be stored is 768.
