Question

The dimensions of a cuboid are in the ratio 6:3:2 . its volume is 2.304m.find the dimensions and total surface area of cuboid

Answer 1

Let the sides of the cuboid be 2x, 3x, and 4x

Now the surface area of a cuboid is given by

2( (2x)(3x)+(4x)(3x)+(2x)(4x) ) = 468

Now adding the terms:-

52x² = 468

x² = 468/52

   = 9

x = 3
