MCQ
How many bricks will be required to construct a wall 13.5m long; 6m high and 22.5cm thick if each brick measures (27cm × 12.5cm × 9cm)?
  • A
    6000
  • B
    3750
  • C
    5000
  • D
    7500

Answer

  1. 6000

Solution:

Length of the wall = (13.5 × 100)cm = 1350cm

Breadth of the wall = 22.5cm

Height of the wall = (6 × 100)cm = 600cm

Volume of the wall = (1350 × 22.5 × 600)cm3

Volume of each brick = (27 × 12.5 × 9)cm3

Number of brick required $=\frac{\text{Volume of the wall }}{\text{Volume of 1 brick }}$

$=\Big(\frac{1350\times22.5\times600}{27\times12.5\times9}\Big)=6000$
