Question 1
A matchbox measures $4cm\times 2.5cm\times 1.5cm$. What will be the volume of a packet containing 12 such boxes?

Answer 1

Match box is a cuboid having its length(l), breadth(b) and height(h) as 4 cm, 2.5 cm and 1.5 cm respectively.

Volume of 1 match box

$=l\times b\times h=(4\times 2.5\times 1.5)c{m}^3=15c{m}^3$

Hence, Volume of 12 such matchboxes $=(15\times 12)c{m}^3=180c{m}^3$
