Question

Wooden blocks measure 24 cm by 18 cm by 15 cm how many cubical blocks of 86cm can be cut form it

Answer 1

Answer:

Depends on what the question is asking you precisely:

24x18x15 = 6480cm^3

Assuming that 86cm is the size of one square;

6480 / 86 = 75.34883721

You cannot cut 0.3488 of wood so it is 75 cubical blocks of wood

If it is an upper bound - lower bound question then:

Cubical block - UB = 86.5cm

                          LB = 85.5cm

Wooden block - UB = 24.5 x 18.5 x 15.5

                           LB = 23.5 x 17.5 x 14.5

Then divide UB by LB and vice versa
