The length of the cold storage of cuboidal shape is double its breadth, and its height is half of its breadth. If its volume is 216 m3, then what are the dimensions of the cold storage?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 12 m × 6 m × 3 m.
Let the breadth of the cold storage be x meters
Length = 2x
Height = x/2
Volume = Length × Bredth × height
⇒ 216 = 2x × x × x/2
⇒ x3 = 216
⇒ x = 6
Breadth = x = 6 m
Length = 2x = 12 m
Height = 3 m
