Ben Roach · Answer 1

For room,

L=5m

B=3m

H=2m

vol. of room=L*B*H

=5*3*2

=30m^3

For each box

l=10cm=0.1m

b=6cm=0.06m

h=4cm=0.04m

vol. of each box=l*b*h

=0.1*0.06*0.04

=0.00024m^3

So no. of boxes that can be fit in room=vol. of room/vol. of each box

=30/0.00024

=3000000/24

=125000boxes
