Question

The drawer in Kalpana's cupboard is 30cm long, 10cm high, 45cm wide. What is the volume of the drawer? How many boxes of volume 500 cubic cm can fit in the drawer?

Answer 1

Answer: 27 boxes

Explaination: lenght = 30cm       breath = 45cm.    Hight = 10cm      

Volume of drawer(volume of cuboid) = Lenght X Breath X Height

         = 30cm X 45cm X 10cm = 13500 cm X cm X cm

Volume of cubic box = 500 cm X cm X cm

No. Of box which can be fitted = volume of drawer/volume of cubic box

        =13500/500 = 27 boxes

Answer 2

Total volume of the drawer =30×45×10 cm^3
=13500 cm^3

Therefore, no of boxes can be fitted =13500/500
=27
