How many bricks of size 22 cm × 10 cm × 7 cm are required to construct a wall 11 m long, 3.5 m high and 40 cm thick, if the cement and sand used in the construction occupy (1/10)th part of the wall?

उत्तर

Volume of each brick = 22 cm × 10 cm × 7 cm

= 1540 cm3

= 0.00154 m3

Volume of wall = l × b × h

= `11m xx 3.5 m xx 40/100 m`

= 11 × 3.5 × 0.4  ...[∵ 1 m = 100 cm]

= 15.4 m3

If 1/10th part of the wall used in cement and sand, then part of wall used by cement and sand remaining = `15.4/10 m^3 = 1.54 m^3`

Remaining part = 15.4 – 1.54 = 13.86 m3

Number of bricks = `"Volume of wall to be construct"/"Volume of each brick"`

= `13.86/0.00154`

= 9000
