Five identical cubes, each of edge 5 cm, are placed adjacent to each other. Find the volume of the resulting cuboid.

Given,


Edge of the given Cube = 5 cm


Now,


Length (l) of the resulting cuboid = Edge × Number of cubes


= 5 x 5 = 25 cm


Breadth (b) of the resulting cuboid = 5 cm


Height (h) of the resulting cuboid = 5 cm


So,


Volume of the resulting cuboid = l × b × h


= 25 x 5 x 5


= 625 cm3


Hence,


The volume of the resulting cube is 625 cm3
