a cell phone has dimensions 10cm x 5cm x 2cm. how many cell phones can be arranged in a box of dimensions 10cm x 10cm x 15cm ?
First find the volume of the box,
The dimensions(l, b and h) are already provided.
so, Volume of the box = length x breadth x height
= 10cm x 10 cm x 15 cm
= 1500 cm3
Now find the volume of the cell phone!
The dimensions(l, b and h) are already provided.
so. The volume of 1 cell phone = 10cm x 5cm X 2cm
= 100 cm3
now let us find the no.of cell phones that would fit inside the box!
for that u need to divide the volume of the box by the volume of the cell phone like this:
No.of cell phone that would fit iside the box = Volume of the box/ Volume of the cell phone
= 1500cm3/ 100cm3
= 15
Therefore 15 cell phones would fit inside the box!
HOPE THIS HELPS! thumbs up if it is right!
