Answer» It is given that Length of the godown = 40m Breadth of the godown = 25m Height of the godown = 15m We know that Volume of godown = l × b × h By substituting the values Volume of godown = 40 × 25 × 15 On further calculation Volume of godown = 15000 m3 It is given that Length of wooden crate = 1.5m Breadth of wooden crate = 1.25m Height of wooden crate = 0.5m We know that Volume of each wooden crate = l × b × h By substituting the values Volume of each wooden crate = 1.5 × 1.25 × 0.5 On further calculation Volume of each wooden crate = 0.9375 m3 So we get Number of wooden crates that can be stored in godown = Volume of godown/ Volume of each wooden crate By substituting the values Number of wooden crates that can be stored in godown = 15000/ 0.9375 So we get Number of wooden crates that can be stored in godown = 16000 Therefore, the number of wooden crates that can be stored in the godown are 16000. |
