Question

Max and Tim want to calculate the volume of a solid. Max has a water bottle, while Tim has a paper sheet. Who will be able to calculate the volume?

• A. Max
• B. Tim
• C. Both of them can calculate the volume.
• D. None of them can calculate the volume.

Answer 1

The correct option is A Max

We can measure the volume of a solid which has a 3-D shape.

So, the volume of a water bottle can be measured.

Whereas a thin paper sheet is a 2-D shape. So, its volume cannot be measured.

Hence, only Max can calculate volume.
