Options- A. 30
- B. 40
- C. 10
- D. 20
- Correct Answer
- 40
ExplanationVolume of the block = (6 x 12 x 15) cu.cm = 1080 cu.cm
Side of the largest cube = H.C.F. of 6 cm, 12 cm, 15 cm
= 3 cm.
Volume of this cube = (3 x 3 x 3) cu.cm = 27 cu.cm
Number of cubes = = 40.

Correct Answer: 12 pi cub.cm
Correct Answer: 216
Explanation:
number of cubes=(18 x 18 x 18) / (3 x 3 x 3) = 216
Correct Answer: 125%
Explanation:
Let the edge = a cm
So increase by 50 % = a + a/2 = 3a/2
Total surface Area of original cube =
TSA of new cube = = =
Increase in area = =
Increase % = = 125%
Correct Answer: 27months
Explanation:
P.W. = Rs. (1600 - 160) = Rs. 1440
? S.I. on Rs.1440 at 5% is Rs. 160.
? Time = [100 * 160 / 1440 * 5] = 20/9 years = [20/9 * 12] months = 27 months.
Correct Answer: 300
Explanation:
PW = = Rs.2500
TD = Amount - PW = 2800 - 2500 = Rs.300
Correct Answer: 1200
Correct Answer: 49
Explanation:
Area of the wet surface = [2(lb + bh + lh) - lb]
= 2(bh + lh) + lb
= [2 (4 x 1.25 + 6 x 1.25) + 6 x 4]
= 49
Correct Answer: 6400
Explanation:
No. of bricks= volume of the wall/volume of 1 brick
= (800 x 600 x 22.5) / (25 x 11.25 x 6) = 6400
Correct Answer: 1000
Explanation:
Number of cubes= (100x100x100) / (10x10x10)= 1000
Correct Answer: 4913 cubic.cm
Explanation:
Let the edge of the cube bea. Then,
6 = 1734
=> a = 17 cm.
Volume = = = 4193 cu.cm
