A wall of dimensions 3m * 12cm * 7m is to be made by using bricks of dimesions 25cm * 12cm * 10cm. How much bricks are required to construct the wall?(a) 825(b) 820(c) 850(d) 840I had been asked this question in an online quiz.My query is from Volume of a Cuboid in section Surface Areas and Volumes of Mathematics – Class 9

Answer»

The correct answer is (d) 840

Easy EXPLANATION: For wall, length = 3m = 300cm, BREADTH = 12cm and height = 7M = 700cm

Volume of the wall = 300 * 12 * 700

= 2520000cm^3

Volume of bricks = 25 * 12 * 10

= 3000cm^3

Number of bricks REQUIRED = \(\frac{Volume \,of \,the \,wall}{Volume \,of \,one \,brick}\)

= 252000/3000

= 840.
