Question

Find the volume of a box of length $80cm$, breath $50cm$ and depth 40 cm in $m^3$.

Answer 1

Step 1: Given data

Length of the cuboidal box $=l=80cm$.

Breadth of the cuboidal box $=b=50cm$.

Depth of the cuboidal box $=h=40cm$

Step 2: To find the volume of the box

Volume of the cuboidal box $=l\times b\times h$

Volume of the cuboidal box $=80cm\times 50cm\times 40cm$

Volume of the cuboidal box $=160000c{m}^3=16\times {10}^{4}c{m}^3$

Step 3: To find the volume of the box in $m^3$

We know that

$1c{m}^3={10}^{-6}{m}^3$

So,

$16\times {10}^{4}c{m}^3=16\times {10}^4\times {10}^{-6}{m}^3$

$16\times {10}^{4}c{m}^3=16\times {10}^{-2}{m}^3$

$16\times {10}^{4}c{m}^3=0.16m^3$

Hence, the volume of the box $0.16m^3$.
