(1) Volume of a cuboid = length × breadth × height
(2) 40 cubes fit into a cuboidal box.
So, volume of 40 cubes = volume of the box
Volume of a cube = (side)3
= (1 cm)3 (It is given that side of a cube = 1 cm )
= 1 cm3
So, volume of 40 cubes = 40 × volume of 1 cube
= 40 × 1 cm3
= 40 cm3
Thus, volume of the cuboidal box = 40 cm3
