Question

A solid cubical block of fine wood costs 256 at 500 per m 3 . Find its volume and the length of each side.

Philoid · Accepted Answer

It is given that,

Cost of wood = Rs. 500/m³

Also,

Cost of the given block = Rs 256

We know that,

Volume of cube = a³

Therefore,

Volume of the given block = a³ =

= 0.512 m³

= 512000 cm³

Also,

Length of its edge = a =

= 0.8 m

= 80 cm
