The volume of a wall, six times as high as its breadth and half as long as its height, is 23958 cm3. What is the breadth of the wall?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The volume of a wall = 23958 cm3
Volume of a cuboid = Length × Breadth × Height
Let the height = 6a,
breadth = a
length = 3a
According to the concept,
3a × a × 6a = 23958
= a3 = \(\frac{23958}{18}\)
= a3 = 1331
= a = 11
