Question 4: The paint in a certain container is sufficient to paint an area equal to 9.375m2. How many bricks of dimensions 22.5 cm × 10 cm × 7.5 cm can be painted out of this container?
Prerequisite
Finding surface area of a cube or a cuboid is quite simple. Every cube/cuboid has 6 sides. All we need is find the area of all six sides and add – this will be the total surface area of the cube/cuboid.
A cube is a cuboid that has all edges of equal length. Hence, every cube is a cuboid as well but every cuboid is not a cube.
It is recommended to understand the core concept of area, surface area and volume before we attempt any question based on these concepts.
