3. L = 10 m
1. (c) The surface area of a cube = 96 cm2 B=8m
Let the length of the cube is l cm. Volume = L × B × H
∴ 6 × l2 = 96 380 = 10 × 8 × H
69 380 = 80 × H
⇒ l2 = = 16
6 380 19
⇒ = = 4.75 m
= H or H
⇒ l=4 80 4
length of cube = 4 cm. 4. L = 8 m, B = 6 m, H = 3 m
Volume of cube = l3 = 43 = 64 Volume = L × B × H
Required volume = 64cm3. = 8 × 6 × 3 = 144 cm3
2. (b) Given ℓ = 4 m ; b = 50 m = 0.5 m ; h = 20 cm = 0.2 m Cost = 144 × 30 = ` 4320
Volume of plank = ℓbh = 4 × 0.5 × 0.2 = 4m3 5. Volume = 50000l
Also dimension of pit are : ℓ = 16m ; b = 12 m L × B × H = 50000 l
and h = 40 m
2.5 × B × 10 = 50000
Volume of pit = 16 × 12 × 40 = 7680
25 × B = 50000
7680
Required number of planks = = 1920 50000

3. (d) Let side of cube be x m 1 m3 = 1000 l
∴ 4x2 = 256 m2 2000
⇒ x2 = 16 = = 2m
⇒ x=4m 1000
Volume of cube = (4)3 = 64 m3 6. L = 20 m, B = 15 m, H = 6 m
Volume = L × B × H
4. (a) LSA = 4a2 = 64 ⇒ a = 4 cm
= 20 × 15 × 6 = 1800 m3

5. (a) Base area × height = volume Capacity of tank = 1800 × 1000
123 × 45 = 5535 cu cm = 1800000 l
6. (d) Volume = a3 = 216 = 63

Number of days = 3 days
⇒ a=6 600000
TSA = 6a2 = 6 × 62 = 216 sq cm 7. Length of godown = 40 m
7. True Breadth of godown = 25 m
Height of godown = 15 m
8. True Volume of godown = L × B × H
9. Volume = 40 × 25 × 15 = 15000 m3
Length of wooden crates = 1.5 m
10. Cubic
Breadth of wooden crates = 1.25 m
11. (d) Volume of cube = 64 cm2 Height of wooden crates = 0.5 m
Let each side of cube be 4 cm Volume of wooden crates = L × B × H
∴ a3 = 64 ⇒ a = 4 cm = 1.5 × 1.25 × 0.5
∴ (A) is false but (R) is true. = 0.9375 m3 13

B = 2.5 cm 9375
H = 1.5 cm 8. Side of cube = 12 cm
Volume = L × B × H Volume of cube = (S)3
= 4 × 2.5 × 1.5 = 15 cm3 = (12)3 = 1728 cm3
Number of boxes = 12 × 15 = 180 cm3 1728

Cut into 8 pieces = 216
2. L = 6 m, B = 5 cm, H = 4.5 m 8
Volume = L × B × H Let side of new cube be a cm

2 Fundamentals of Mathematics

10. When the cubical tank is full:

a = 3 216
Volume of water = Volume of cube = 15.625 m3
a = 6 cm
Volume of cube = (length of edge of cube)3
Ratio:
⇒ (length of edge of cube)3 = 15.625
Surface area of Solid cube 6 s 2
= = 3 15.625
Surface area of New cube 6a 2 = 2.5 m
12 × 12 4 Length of the edge of the cube = 2.5 m.
= = = 4 :1
6×6 1 depth of the water = 1.3 m:
9. Height of River = 3 m
Length of tank = 2.5 m
Breadth of River = 40 m Breadth of tank = 2.5 m
Water flowing = 2 km per hour. Volume of water upto 1.3 m depth = length × breadth ×
depth
= 2000 m
= 2.5 × 2.5 × 1.3

=
(L) Water flow in one minute = m = 8.125 m3
60 3 Volume of water already used from the tank
Volume = L × B × H = 15.625 – 8.125
100 = 7.5 m3
