in a box of length 1m, breath 60cm, height 40cm. small rectangle packets of dimensions 5cm x 8cm x 10cm are packed. how many such small packed in the big box?

Find the volume of the box and the rectangles:

1m = 100cm

Volume of box = 100 x 60 x 40 = 240,000 cubic cm.

Volume of rectangle = 5x 8 x 10 = 400 cubic cm.

Now divide the volume of the box by the volume of the rectangle:

240,000 / 400 = 600 rectangles

600 small packets

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the volume of the small packets:

5 x 8 x 10 = 400 cm³

Then find the volume of the big box:

100 x 40 x 60 = 240,000 cm³

Then divide the volume of the big box by the volume of the small packets:

240,000 : 400 = 600 small packets
