The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 7200.
Given that
The length of a rectangular box = 1.6 m = 160 cm
The breadth of the rectangular box = 90 cm
The height of the rectangular box = 60 cm
Soap cakes of measurement 6 cm × 5 cm × 40 mm are to be packed in the box
Let the number of cakes can be packed be N
Formula used
Volume of a cuboid or a rectangular box = Length × Breadth × Height

⇒ Volume of a rectangular box = N × Volume of a soap cakes
⇒ 160 × 90 × 60 = N × 6 × 5 × 4
⇒ N = 7200
