Question

A room is in the from of a cuboid of measures 50 m $\times$ 30 m $\times$ 20 m. How many cuboidal boxes can be stored in it if the volume of one box is 0.6$m^3$?

• A. $40,000$
• B. $30,000$
• C. $50,000$
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C $50,000$

Volume of one box = 0.6 $m^3$
Volume of room = 50 $\times$ 30 $\times$ 20
= 30,000 $m^3$
Number of boxes that can be stored in the room = $\frac{Volumeoftheroom}{Volumeofonebox}$
= $\frac{50\times 30\times 20}{0.6}=50,000$
Hence the number of cuboidal boxes that can be stored in the room is $50,000$.
