The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We know that the length (L) of the hall is double its breadth (B), and the height (H) is given as 3 m. The area of the four walls (lateral surface area) is given as 108 m². ### Step 2: Set Up the Relationships From the problem, we can establish the following relationships: - \( L = 2B \) (Length is double the breadth) - \( H = 3 \) m (Height is given) ### Step 3: Use the Formula for Lateral Surface Area The formula for the lateral surface area (A) of a cuboid is: \[ A = 2H(L + B) \] We know that the area of the four walls is 108 m², so we can set up the equation: \[ 2H(L + B) = 108 \] ### Step 4: Substitute Known Values Substituting the known values into the equation: \[ 2 \times 3 \times (L + B) = 108 \] This simplifies to: \[ 6(L + B) = 108 \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( L + B \) Now, divide both sides by 6: \[ L + B = \frac{108}{6} \] \[ L + B = 18 \] ### Step 6: Substitute \( L \) in Terms of \( B \) Since \( L = 2B \), we can substitute this into the equation: \[ 2B + B = 18 \] This simplifies to: \[ 3B = 18 \] ### Step 7: Solve for \( B \) Now, divide both sides by 3: \[ B = \frac{18}{3} \] \[ B = 6 \] m ### Step 8: Find \( L \) Now that we have \( B \), we can find \( L \): \[ L = 2B = 2 \times 6 = 12 \] m ### Step 9: Find the Volume The volume (V) of the cuboid is given by the formula: \[ V = L \times B \times H \] Substituting the values we found: \[ V = 12 \times 6 \times 3 \] ### Step 10: Calculate the Volume Now, calculate the volume: \[ V = 72 \times 3 = 216 \] m³ ### Final Answer The volume of the hall is **216 m³**. ---
