Answer 2

$\bigstar\huge\bf\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}$

$\bigstar\bf\underline{\underline{Given:-}}$

• The size of a matchbox is 4 cm 2.5 cm x 1.5 cm

$\bigstar\bf\underline{\underline{To \ find:-}}$

• What is the volume of a packet containing  144 matchboxes?

• How many such packets can be placed in a carton of size 1.5 cm x 84 cm  × 60cm

$\bigstar\bf\underline{\underline{Solution:-}}$

We know that, volume of cuboid = length × breadth × height

Volume occupied by single matchbox = 4 × 2.5 × 1.5 = 15 cm3

Volume of a packet containing 144 matchbox = 15 × 144 = 2160 cm3

Volume of carton is 1.5cm × 84cm × 60 cm = 756000 cm3

Therefore, total number of packets can be accommodated in a carton is

Volume of the carton / volume of the box

=> 75600 / 2160

=> 350 packets

Therefore, We can place "350 packets"
