Solution

Given go down length`(l_1)=40m.`
`Breath (b_1 ) = 25m.`
`Height (h_1 ) = 10m.`
`"Volume of wooden crate"=l_1xxb_1xxh_1=40xx25xx10m^3`
`=10000m_3`
Wood of wooden crate= `l_2xxb_2xxh_2`
`=1.5xx1.25xx0.25m^3=0.9375m^3`

Let m wooden creates be stored in the go down volume of m wood crates = volume of go down

`0.9375xxn=10000`
`n=(10000)/(0.9375)=10,666.66,`

Thus, 10, 666  66 wooden crates can be stored in go down.
