How many bags of grain can be stored in a cuboidal granary (8 m × 6 m × 3 m), if each bag occupies a space of 0.64 m3?

Given: cuboidal granary with dimensions (8 m × 6 m × 3 m)


Volume of the bag : 0.64 m3


Volume of a Cuboid is given by: l × b × h (here l, b, h are length, breadth, height of the Cuboid respectively)


Let ‘V’ be the Volume of the Cuboidal granary.


V = l × b × h = 8 × 6 × 3 = 144


Let ‘n’ be the number of bags that can fit in cuboidal granary.


n × 0.64 = 144


n = = 225


n = 225


That is a total of 225 bags, each of volume 0.64 m3 can fit in Cuboidal granary.
