Solution

VOLUME:
The space occupied by an object is called the volume of the particular object.
Volume is always measured in cubic unit.

Given:
Dimensions of the matchbox =4 cm×2.5 cm×1.5 cm
So, l=4 cm, b=2.5 cm and h=1.5 cm
Volume of cuboid =(l×b×h)
Volume of one matchbox = Volume of cuboid
Volume of one matchbox =4×2.5×1.5
=15 cm3
Volume of a packet containing 12 such boxes =12× volume of one match box
=(12×15) cm3=180 cm3

Hence, the volume of a packet containing 12 such boxes =180 cm3
