Question

The number of small cubes of edge of $10cm$ that can be accommodated in a cubical box of edge $1m$ is

• A. 10
• B. 100
• C. 1000
• D. 110

Answer 1

The correct option is C

1000

Volume of the cubical box $=1\times 1\times 1=1m^3$

Volume of a small cube $=10\times 10\times 10=1000c{m}^3=0.001m^3$

Number of small cubes that can be accommodated in the cubical box $=\frac{\text{Volume of the cubical box}}{\text{Volume of a small cube}}=\frac{1}{0.001}=1000$
