A cuboidal block of silver is 9cm long, 4cm broad and 3.5cm in height. From it, beads of volume `1. 5 c m^3` each are to be made. Find the number of beads that can be made from the block.

Explanation

Given:
Length of block `(l)=9 cm`
Breadth `(b)=4 cm`
Height `(h)=3.5 cm`
`:.`Volume`=l×b×h`
Volume`=9×4×3.5cm^3`
Volume`=126cm^3`
Volume of one bead`=1.5cm^3`
`:.`Number of beads`=126/1.5=84`.
Hence, `84` beads can be made from the block.
