Question

Two cuboids of dimensions (5cm x 4cm x 6cm) and (6cm x 8cm x 2cm) are melted and a
cube is formed. Find:
i) Volume of the cube.
ii) Measure of each side of the cube.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Volume = 216cu.cm, Side = 6cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First Cuboid:

Length = 6cm

Breadth = 5cm

Height = 4cm

Volume of first cuboid = L*B*H

= 6*5*4

= 120cu.cm

Second Cuboid

Length = 8cm

Breadth = 6cm

Height = 2cm

Volume of the second Cuboid = L*B*H

= 8*6*2

=96cu.cm

Volume of cube = Volume of first cuboid + Volume of second Cuboid

= 120 + 96

=216 cu.cm

Volume of cube =

${side}^{3}$

Side =

$\sqrt[3]{216}$

= 6cm
