Find the number of bricks, each measuring 24 cm x 12 cm x 8 cm, required to construct a wall 24 m long, 8m high and 60 cm thick, if 10% of the wall is filled with mortar?
Options- A. 35000
- B. 45000
- C. 55000
- D. 65000
- Correct Answer
- 45000
ExplanationVolume of the wall = (2400 x 800 x 60) cu.cm
Volume of bricks = 90% of the volume of the wall
= [(90/100) x 2400 x 800 x 60] cu.cm
Volume of 1 brick = (24 x 12 x 8) cu.cm
Number of bricks = [(90/100) x (2400 x 800 x 60) ]/ (24 x 12 x 8) = 45000

Correct Answer: 20
Explanation:
Given height of the conical tent = 3 m
Diameter = 10 => Radius = D/2 = 10/2 = 5 m
Now, as the tent is in the conical form
Volume of the conical tent =
=> (22 x 5 x 5 x 3) / (7 x 3)
= 22 x 25/7
= 78.54 cu.m
Given each person requires 3.92 cu.m of air
=> Number of persons can be seated in the tent = 78.54/3.92 = 20.03 =~ 20
Correct Answer: 2311 cub. cm
Explanation:
Given Circumference of a circular base of a cylinder = 44 cm
We know that Circumference of a circle =
Now given the height of a cylinder h = 15 cm
Correct Answer: 164
Explanation:
surface area = [2(10*4 + 4*3 + 10*3)]sq.cm = 164 sq.cm
Correct Answer: 6400
Explanation:
Number of bricks = volume of the wall/volume of one brick
= (800 x 600 x 22.5)/(25 x 11.25 x 6 )= 6400
Correct Answer: 7 : 3
Explanation:
=> r = (24/364) x 2 = 7m
Required Rato =2r/h =14/6 = 7:3
Correct Answer: 100 ?
Explanation:
4/3 ? x 10 x 10 x 10 = 8 x 4/3 ? x r x r x r
r = 5
4? x 5 x 5 = 100?
Correct Answer: 486 sq.cm
Explanation:
volume = = 729;
=> a = 9
surface area= 6 = (6 x 9 x 9) = 486 sq.cm
Correct Answer: 4312 sq.m
Explanation:
Let the radii of the smaller and the larger circles be 's' m and 'l' m respectively.
= 264 and = 352
s = and l =
Difference between the areas =
=
=
= (176 - 132)(176 + 132) /
= (44 x 308) / (22/7) = 4312 sq.m
Correct Answer: 3:4
Correct Answer: 24
Explanation:
Volume of block=(6 x 9 x 12) cu.cm = 648 cu.cm
Side of largest cube = H.C.F of 6,9,12 = 3cm
Volume of the cube=(3 x 3 x 3)=27cu.cm
Number of cubes=(648/27)=24
