Question

Tick the correct option for the following.

The ratio of the number of sides of a rectangle to the number of edges of a cuboid is -

• A. $4:1$
• B. $1:2$
• C. $1:3$
• D. $3:2$

Answer 1

The correct option is C

$1:3$

The correct option is (C), $1:3$.

The number of sides of a rectangle$=4$

The number of edges of a cuboid$=12$

The ratio of the number of sides of a rectangle to the number of edges of a cuboid $=\frac{Numberofsidesofarectangle}{Numberofedgesofacuboid}$

$=\frac{4}{12}$
$=\frac{1}{3}$ (on dividing numerator and denominator by $4$)

$=1:3$

Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.
