  • Question
  • Calculate the number of bricks, each measuring 25 cm x 15 cm x 8 cm required to construct a wall of dimensions 10 m x 4 m x 5 m when 10% of its volume is occupied by concrete ?


  • Options
  • A. 6000
  • B. 5400
  • C. 3800
  • D. 4700

  • Correct Answer
  • 6000 

    Explanation

    Let 'B' be the nuber of bricks.

    => 10 x 4/100 x 5 x 90/100 = 25/100 x 15/100 x 8/100 x B

    => 10 x 20 x 90 = 15 x 2 x B

    => B = 6000
