A cuboid is of dimensions 60 cm × 54 cm × 30 cm. How many small cubes with side 6 cm can be placed in the given cuboid?

Solution:

We know that, Volume of cuboid = l × b × h

= 60 cm × 54 cm × 30 cm

= 97200 cm³

Side of the cube = 6 cm

Volume of the cube = side³

= 6³ 

= 216 cm³

Required number of cubes = volume of cuboid / volume of the cube

= 97200 / 216

= 450

Thus, 450 cubes can be placed in the given cuboid.
