The surface areas of the six faces

Question:

The surface areas of the six faces of a rectangular solid are 16, 16, 32, 32, 72 and 72 square centimetres. The volume of the solid, in cubic centimetres, is

(a) 192

(b) 384

(c) 480

(d) 2592

Solution:

The correct answer is option (a) 192

Explanation:

It is given that, the solid has a rectangular faces, hence,

lb=16 …(1)

bh = 32 ….(2)

lh = 72 …(3)

Multiply the equations (1), (2), (3), we will get

(l)2(b) 2 (h) 2 = (16)(32)(72) = 36864

lbh = 192

Therefore, the volume of a solid is 192 cubic centimetre.
