Question

The drama club needs a plywood box with these dimensions: 70 cm by 40 cm by 50 cm

Answer 1

140,000 cm³ of plywood is needed to make the prop.

Explanation:

• The dimensions of the required box are 70cm × 40cm × 50cm.

• So we take the length equals 70cm, the width is equal to 40cm and the height is 50cm. The volume of this box is calculated by multiplying the given box's length, its width, and its height. The question does not provide which measurement is which but ultimately the volume will be equal no matter what the case.

• Volume of box = Length × Width × Height = 70cm × 40cm × 50cm = 140,000 cm³.

• So 140,000 cm³ of plywood is needed to make the prop in the play
