Answer:
4167 bricks
Step-by-step explanation:
We first find the amount of space the wall will occupy by multiplying the dimensions given, is that;
=10m×4m×8cm
But 8cm=0.08m
This implies that,
10m×4m×8cm
=10m×4m×0.08m
[tex] = 9.6 {m}^{3} [/tex]
The dimensions of each brick that will be used is 24 cm x12 cm x 8 cm.
We calculate the space each brick will occupy
This implies;
24 cm x12 cm x 8 cm
Converting to meters we obtain
0.24m x 0.12m x 0.08m
[tex]=2.304 \times{10}^{ - 3}{m}^{3} [/tex]
To get the number of bricks that will be required, we divide 9.6 meters cube by
[tex]2.304 \times {10}^{ - 3}{m}^{3} [/tex]
[tex] \implies \frac{9.6}{2.304 \times {10}^{ - 3}} = 4166.667[/tex]
Approximately, 4167 bricks will be required.
