= [2 × 20 × 4.5] cm2
= 180 cm2

Total surface area of cuboid


= 2(lb + bh + hl) square units

= [2(l + b) ×h] square unit
= [2(24+0.25) × 6] m2
= [2×24.25×6]
= 291 m2.

=2(6+1.5+144) m2
= 2× 151.2
= 303 m2
2. Given,
A match box measure = 4cm × 2.5cm × 1.5cm
Volume of 1 match box = 4cm × 2.5cm × 1.5cm
= 15cm3
∵ volume of one matchbox = 15cm3
∴ volume of 12 matchbox = 15 × 12 cm3
= 180 cm3.

3. Given,

Given, 1m3 = 1000litres
So, 135m3 = 135 × 1000litres
= 135000 litre
Litre of water hold by tank = 135000 litre.

4. Given,

area of windows = 1.5×1 = 1.5m2
but there are two windows then
