Solution

Length of cuboid = l = 200 cmbreadth of cuboid = b = 50 cmheight of cuboid = h = 100 cmVolume of cuboid = lbh = 200×50×10 = 1000000 cm3Let s be the length of each side of cube.Now, volume of cube = s3Now, when cuboid is melted and recast into cube, then volume remains constant.Volume of cube = volume of cuboid s3 = 1000000s = 100 cmSurface area of cuboid = 2lb+bh+hl = 2200×50+50×100+100×200 = 70000 cm2Surface area of cube = 6s2 = 6 × 100 × 100 = 60000 cm2Difference in surface areas = 70000 - 60000 = 10000 cm2
