Three cubes whose edges measure 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm respectively are melted to form a new cube. Find the edge of the new cube. 1. 6 cm2. 8 cm3. 9.5 cm4. 8.3 cm

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 6 cm

Given:

First cube edge (a1) = 3 cm

Second cube edge (a2) = 4 cm

Third cube edge (a3) = 5 cm

Formula used:

Volume of cube = a3

Calculations:

Volume of three cubs =  Volume of new cube

⇒  (a1)3 + (a2)3 + (a3)3 = V

⇒ 33 + 43 + 53 = V

⇒ V = 216 cm3

⇒ Edge = 6 cm

∴ The edge of new cube is 6 cm.
