Question

Gold is dearly possessed by millions of people as jewellery, coins and articles. If all the gold in the world were to be stored in rooms ten feet long, ten feet wide and ten feet high, how many rooms would it occupy?

• A. $160$
• B. $12$
• C. $1000$
• D. $800$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $1000$

If the size of the room is (ten feet long, ten feet wide and ten feet high) $10\times 10\times 10$ i.e. room behaves as a cube. So, volume of the cube i.e. total space in the room will be equal to length $\times$ breadth $\times$ height= $10\times 10\times 10=1000$. Although, we couldn't find how many rooms all the gold in the world will occupy because we don't know the total amount of gold in the world.
