    Question



    The volume of a cube and a cuboid are 216 cubic cm and 480 cubic cm respectively. If the length and breadth of cuboid are in the ratio 5 : 4 and the height of cuboid is equal to the length of side of cube, then find the ratio of face diagonal of cube to the diagonal of cuboid.

    A.

    3:5

    B.

    4:5

    C.

    3:7

    D.

    5:8

    E.

    5:4

    Correct option is A

    Given:

    Volume of a cube and a cuboid are 216 cubic cm and 480 cubic cm respectively.

    Ratio of  length and breadth of cuboid = 5 : 4

    Height of cuboid = side of cube

    Formula Used:

    Volume of cuboid = length × width × height

    Volume of Cube = Side3Side^3​​

    Explanation:

    Height of the cuboid = side of the cube = ∛216 = 6 cm
    Let the length & breadth of the cuboid be 5x & 4x respectively.
    5x × 4x × 6 = 480
    x = 2
    5x = 10
    4x = 8
    Face diagonal of the cube = 6√2 cm
    Diagonal of the cuboid = √(10)2 + 82 + 62 = 10√2 cm
    Required ratio = 6√2 : 10√2 = 3:5
