  • Question
  • What is the ratio of maximum and minimum number of cuboids with red colour on them?


  • Options
  • A. 18 : 7
  • B. 18 : 5
  • C. 16 : 5
  • D. None of these

  • Correct Answer
  • 18 : 5 

    Explanation

    For least number of cuts 120 = 4 x 5 x 6 i.e number of cuts must be 3, 4 and 5 in three planes in this case number of cubes on a face is either 6 x 5 = 30 or 6 x 4 = 24 or 4 x 5 = 20 cubes . And number of cuboids on an edge is 4 or 5 or 6
    Maximum number of cuboid with red colour is possible when cube is painted with red colour in 3 sides with minimum number of common edges (which is equal to 2)
    Hence required maximum value is 6 (5 + 5 + 4 - 2) = 72
    For minimum number of such cuboid Red colour is used only once and minimum number of cubes in that case is 20
    Hence required ratio is 72 : 20 = 18 : 5
