Practice Set 16.1
Question 1.1. Find the volume of a box if its length, breadth and height are 20 cm, 10.5 cm and 8 cm respectively.
Given:
- Length (l) = 20 cm
- Breadth (b) = 10.5 cm
- Height (h) = 8 cm
Volume of a cuboid : = l × b × h
Substitute the given values into the formula:
∴ Volume = 20 × 10.5 × 8 = 160 × 10.5 = 1680 cm3
Answer: The volume of the box is 1680 cubic centimeters (cc or cm3).
Question 1.2. A cuboid shape soap bar has volume 150 cc. Find its thickness if its length is 10 cm and breadth is 5 cm.
Given Information:
- Volume = 150 cc (cubic centimeters)
- Length (l) = 10 cm
- Breadth (b) = 5 cm
The volume of a cuboid is calculated as: Volume = l × b × h
(In this problem, "thickness" refers to the height (h) of the cuboid.)
Substitute the known values into the formula:
∴ 150 = 10 × 5 × h
∴ 150 = 50 × h
∴ h = \(\frac{150}{50}\) = 3 cm
Answer: The thickness of the soap bar is 3 cm.
Question 1.3. How many bricks of length 25 cm, breadth 15 cm and height 10 cm are required to build a wall of length 6 m, height 2.5 m and breadth 0.5 m?
First convert all dimensions to centimeters (1 m = 100 cm).
For the Wall:
- Length (l1): 6 m = 600 cm
- Height (h1): 2.5 m = 250 cm
- Breadth (b1): 0.5 m = 50 cm
For one Brick:
- Length: 25 cm
- Breadth: 15 cm
- Height: 10 cm
The volume of a cuboid is calculated using: Volume = l × b × h
Volume of Wall = 600 × 50 × 250 cc
Volume of one Brick = 25 ×15 × 10 cc
Find the Number of Bricks Required :
Number of bricks = \(\frac{\text{Volume of Wall}}{\text{Volume of Brick}}\)
∴ Number of bricks = \(\frac{600 × 50 × 250}{25 ×15 × 10}\) = 40 × 50 = 2000
Answer: 2000 bricks are required to build the wall.
Question 1.4. For rain water harvesting a tank of length 10 m, breadth 6 m and depth 3m is built. What is the capacity of the tank ? How many litre of water can it hold?
The tank is a cuboid with the following dimensions:
- Length (l): 10 m
- Breadth (b): 6 m
- Depth or Height (h): 3 m
Volume of a cuboid: Volume = l × b × h
Step 1: Find the capacity (volume) of the tank in cubic meters.
Capacity = 10 m × 6 m × 3 m
∴ Capacity = 180 m3
Step 2: Convert the capacity to liters.
∵ 1 m3 = 1,000 liters
To find how many liters the tank can hold, multiply the volume in cubic meters by 1,000:
∴ Liters of water = 180 × 1,000 = 180,000 liters
Answer:
- The capacity of the tank is 180 m3.
- The tank can hold 180,000 liters of water.

The volume of a cylinder is calculated by multiplying the area of its circular base by its height:
Volume of a cylinder = πr2h (For these calculations, we use π = ).
(1) r = 10.5 cm, h = 8 cm
Substitute the values: Volume = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (10.5)2 × 8

The rod is a cylinder with the following dimensions:
- Length (Height, h): 90 cm.
- Diameter (d): 1.4 cm.
- Radius (r) = 1.4/2 = 0.7 cm
The volume of a cylinder is calculated as: Volume = πr2h
Substitute the values: Volume = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (0.7)2 × 90
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × 0.49 × 90
= 22 × 0.07 × 90
= 138.6 cm3
Answer:
138.6 c cm (cubic centimeters) of iron is needed to make the rod.

Interior diameter of the tank = 1.6 m
its radius (r) = 0.8 m
its depth (h) = 0.7 m
Volume of the tank = πr2h
Substitute the values: Volume = \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (0.8)2 × 0.7
= 22 × 0.8 × 0.8 × 0.1 = 1.408 m3
= 1408 litres. ….(∵ 1m3 = 1000 litres)
Answer : Tank can hold 1408 litres of water.
Question 3.4. Find the volume of the cylinder if the circumference of the cylinder is 132 cm and height is 25 cm.
Circumference of the base of the cylinder = 132 cm
its height (h) = 25 cm
Circumference of the base of the cylinder = 2πr
∴ 132 = 2 × \(\frac{22}{7}\) × r
∴ r = \(\frac{132×7}{22×2}\)
∴ r = 3 x 7
∴ r = 21 cm
Volume of the cylinder = πr2h
= \(\frac{22}{7}\) × (21)2 × 25
= 22 × 3 × 21 × 25 = 34650 cu cm
Answer : Volume of the cylinder is 34650 cu cm.
