Solution
External length of the closed box = 66cm.
External breadth of the closed box = 36 cm
External height of the closed box =21 cm
External volume of the closed box= 66 x 36 x 21 = 49896 cm3
Internal length of the box =(66 – 2 x 0.5) = 66 – 1 = 65 cm
Internal breadth of the box =(36 – 2 x 0.5) = 36 – 1 = 35 cm
Internal height of the box = (21 – 2 x 0.5) = 21 – 1 = 20 cm
Internal Volume of the box = 65 x 35 x 20 = 45500 cm3
(i) Capacity of the box = 45500 cm3
(ii) Volume of metal sheet of the box = External volume – Internal volume
= 49896 – 45500 = 4396 cm3
(iii) 1 cm3 of metal weigh 3.6 grams.
Weight of the box = 4396 x 3.6 gm = 15825.6 gm
