The metal box is in the shape of cuboid with the measurements of length 8cm, breadth
4cm and height 6cm. Find the number of cubes of side 2cm can be placed in the metal
box.
Answers
Answer:
Volume of metal box = L*B*H
= 8*4*6
= 192 cu.cm
Volume of cube = EDGE*EDGE*EDGE
= 2*2*2
= 8 cu.cm
number of cubes of side 2cm can be placed in the metal box = 192/8 = 24 cubes
The number of cubes of side 2cm can be placed in the metal box is 24.
Explanation:
Given : Dimensions of metal box is in the shape of cuboid:
length= 8cm, breadth =4cm and height 6cm
Volume of metal box = length x breadth x height
= 8 x 4 x 6 = 192 cubic cm
Side length of cube = 2 cm
Volume of cube = side³ =2³ = 8 cubic cm.
Now , the number of cubes of side 2cm can be placed in the metal box would be
(Volume of metal box) ÷ (Volume of cube)
= 192 ÷ 8= 24
Hence, the number of cubes of side 2cm can be placed in the metal box is 24.
