- Question
The volume of a wall, 5 times as high as it is broad and 8 times as long as it is high, is 12.8 cu. meters. Find the breadth of the wall.
Options- A. 40cm
- B. 30cm
- C. 20cm
- D. 10cm
- Correct Answer
- 40cm
ExplanationLet the breadth of the wall be x metres.
Then, Height = 5x metres and Length = 40x metres.
x * 5x * 40x = 12.8
=>
=> x = 4/10 m
=> x = (4/10)*100 = 40 cm

Correct Answer: 4913 cubic.cm
Explanation:
Let the edge of the cube bea. Then,
6 = 1734
=> a = 17 cm.
Volume = = = 4193 cu.cm
Correct Answer: 1000
Explanation:
Number of cubes= (100x100x100) / (10x10x10)= 1000
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: 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: 1200
Correct Answer: 18 cm
Explanation:
= =40
Also, lb=20
= 41 + 40 =81
(l + b) = 9.
Perimeter = 2(l + b) = 18 cm.
Correct Answer: 216 sq.cm
Explanation:
Let the edge of the cube be a.
so, the diagonal a =
=> a=6
Surface area = = 6 x 6 x 6 = 216 sq.cm
Correct Answer: 486
Explanation:
Volume of new cube = =
Edge of new cube = = 9cm
Surface area of the new cube = ( 6 x 9 x 9) sq.cm = 486 sq.cm
Correct Answer: 8.04kg
Explanation:
Volume of the metal used in the box = External Volume - Internal Volume
= [(50 x 40 x 23) - (44 x 34 x 20)] cu.cm
= 16080 cu.cm
Weight of the metal =[(16080 x 0.5)/1000] kg = 8.04 kg.
Correct Answer: 3
Explanation:
Water required = 4000 x 140 = 560000 lit = 560 cu.m (1 cu.m = 1000 lit)
Volume of tank = 18 x 12 x 8 = 1728 cu.m
Water of this tank will suffice for = 1728/560 = 3 days.
