प्रश्न

A truck carrying 7.8 m3 concrete arrives at a job site. A platform of width 5 m and height 2 m is being contructed at the site. Find the length of the platform, constructed from the amount of concrete on the truck?

योग

उत्तर

Total volume of concrete = 7.8 m3

Width of the platform = 5 m

Height of the platform = 2 m

Let the length of the platform = x m

According to the question,

Volume of concrete = Volume used to make platform

∴ 7.8 = 5 × 2 × x

⇒ 7.8 = 10x  ...[∵ Volume = Length × Breadth × Height]

⇒ 10x = 7.8

⇒ x = 0.78 m

Hence, the length of the platform is 0.78 m.
