Carton A is 30 cm x 41 cm x 61 cm. Carton B is 36 cm x 36 cm x 61 cm.
Carton C is 32 cm x 40 cm x 61 cm, while Carton D is 30 cm x 40 cm x 61 cm. Which carton has the largest capacity?


Sagot :

Find the capacity of each:
Carton A=75,030 cm³
Carton B=79,056 cm³
Carton C=78,080 cm³

Therefore, the largest capacity is Carton B. Hope this helps =)
In order to look for the capacity of each we need to compute their volumes:
[tex]Volume=length*width*height[/tex]
A) 30*41*61
B) 36*36*61
C) 32*40*61
D) 30*40*61

We can remove 61 since all of them have 61 as a factor.
So:

A) 30*41=1230
B) 36^2= 1296
C) 32*40= 1280
D) 30*40= 1200

Therefore Carton B has the largest capacity.
