Question 1
In the picture below, all the cubes have the same height, and all the books have the
same thickness. If the height of the two cubes is 32 cm, find the difference (in cm)
between the heights of the cube and the book.
Solution:
Since the height of two identical cubes is 32 cm, each cube is 32 cm ÷ 2 = 16 cm
tall.
Total height of 5 identical cubes = Total height of 8 identical books = 16 cm × 5 =
80 cm.
Each book is 80 cm ÷ 8 = 10 cm tall.
Thus, the difference between the heights of the cube and the book is 16 cm − 10 cm =
