A plywood sheet is of rectangular shape with dimensions 38 m x 28 m. From each of its corners, a square is cut off so as to make an open box. If the length of the square is 10 m. what is the volume of the box?

A 1220 m3

B 1440 m3

C 1560 m3

D 2556 m3

E None of these

Solution

Correct Answer: Option B

Given that, A plywood sheet is of rectangular shape with dimensions 38 m x 28 m

After cutting off the squares from corners:

(fig)

Clearly, l = 38 – 20 = 18 m,

b = 28 – 20 = 8 m,

h = 10 m.

we know that Volume of a box = l × b × h

∴ Volume of the box = (18 x 8 x 10) m3 = 1440 m3.
