Question

If 27.6 liters of oil from the given container is used, the remaining oil in the container is

• A. 20 liters
• B. 15 liters
• C. 30 liters

Answer 1

The correct option is C 30 liters

The given container is in the form of a cuboid.



Volume = height$\times$width$\times$height

Length of the container = 40 cm

Width of the container = 24 cm

Height of the container = 60 cm

Volume = 40$\times$24$\times$60 = 57600 cu cm

Hence, the total volume of the oil is 57,600 cu cm

1 liter = 1000 cu cm

57600 cu cm = $\frac{57600}{1000}$ = 57.6 liters

27.6 liters of oil is used

Hence, remaining oil in the container = 57.6 - 27.6 = 30 liters.
