Rahul make a cuboid of side$5\ cm,\ 4\ cm$ and $2\ cm$. How many such cuboid will be needed to form a cube.


Given: Rahul make a cuboid of side $5\ cm,\ 4\ cm$ and $2\ cm$. 

To do: To find how many such cuboid will be needed to form a cube.

Solution:

Volume of cuboid$=( 2\times4\times5)=40$

Each side of a cube will be LCM of $4,\ 2$ & $5\ cm=20\ cm$

Therefore, Volume of the cube$=20\times20\times20=8000\ cm^3$

Therefore, Number of cuboids required$=\frac{volume\ of\ the\ cube}{volume\ of\ the\ cuboid}$

$=\frac{800}{40}$

$=200$ cuboid

Therefore, $200$ cuboids are required.
