A cuboidal block of solid iron has dimensions 50 cm, 45 cm, and 34 cm,

1.	A cuboidal block of solid iron has dimensions 50 cm, 45 cm, and 34 cm, how many cuboids of size 5 cm by 3 cm by 2 cm can be obtained from this block? Assume cutting causes no wastage.
Answer» Given details are, Dimensions of cuboidal block of iron is = 50cm × 45cm × 34cm Size of small cuboids cutting from it is = 5cm × 3cm × 2cm So, Number of small cuboids that can be cut = Volume of large iron cuboid/ volume of small cuboid = (50 × 45 × 34) / (5 × 3 × 2) = 2550 cuboidal blocks

Answer»

Given details are,

Dimensions of cuboidal block of iron is = 50cm × 45cm × 34cm

Size of small cuboids cutting from it is = 5cm × 3cm × 2cm

So,

Number of small cuboids that can be cut =

Volume of large iron cuboid/ volume of small cuboid

= (50 × 45 × 34) / (5 × 3 × 2)

= 2550 cuboidal blocks
