Question

A godown is in the form of a cuboid of measures 60 m × 40 m × 30 m. How many cuboidal boxes can be stored in it if the volume of one box is $0.8m^3$?

Answer 1

The volume of 1 cuboidal box = 0.8 $m^3$
Volume of the godown $=l\times b\times h$
$=60m\times 40m\times 30m$
$=72000m^3$

Required number of cuboidal boxes $=\frac{Volumeofgodown}{Volumeof1cuboidalbox}$
$=\frac{720000}{0.8}=90000$

So, the godown can hold 90,000 cuboidal boxes each of volume $0.8m^3$.
