Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 936 cm3
Given:
Dimensions of rectangular sheet = 32cm × 18cm
Side of square = 3 cm
Formula USed:
Volume of cuboid = l × b × h
Explanation:
Since the squares are cut with side 3 cm, so height of cuboid formed = 3 cm
Length of box = 32 - (3 + 3) = 32 - 6 = 26 cm
Breadth of box = 18 - (3 + 3) = 18 - 6 = 12 cm
Nw, volume = 26 × 12 × 3 = 936
Hence the required answer is 936 cm3.
