Question

If the measurement of a cuboidal vessel is $3\times 4\times x$ and a volume of $18$. What is the value of $x$?

• A. $1.5$ or $\frac{3}{2}$
• B. $2$
• C. $3$
• D. $1$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $1.5$ or $\frac{3}{2}$

Given the measurement of a cuboidal vessel is $3\times 4\times x$

Mean length $=3$, breadth $=4$ and height $=x$ of cuboidal and volume is $18$

We know that volume of cuboilal vessal $=$ length $\times$ breadth $\times$ height

$\therefore 18=3\times 4\times x$

$\Rightarrow 12x=18$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{18}{12}$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{3}{2}=1.5$
