Answer 1

Answer:

=56000 cm3 . again we find volume of box , no of soap cakes × volume of one soap = volume of box . therefore the no of soap cakes 640 .

Answer 2

Given

• The length of a soap cake is 7 cm, the breadth is 5 cm and the thickness 2.5 cm.

We Find

• How many such soap cakes can fit in a cardboard box of length 56 cm, breadth 40 cm and height 25 cm.

We know that

☆Volume of rectangle = L × B × H

❍Volume of soap cake = L × B × H

= 7 × 5 × 2.5 cm

= 87.5 CM is volume of soap cake

So, 87.5 CM is Volume of soap cake

❍Volume of cardboard box = L × B × H

= 56 × 40 × 25

= 56000 cm

So, 56000 cm is Volume of cardboard box

According to the question

Quantity of Soap cake can fit in cardboard box = Volume of cardboard box / Volume of soap cake

Quantity of Soap cake = 56000/87.5

Quantity of Soap cake = 640

Hence, Quantity of Soap cake can fit in cardboard box is 640.
