Answer
Step-by-step solution
5 stepsConvert all dimensions to a consistent unit, centimeters (cm).
Given dimensions of one brick:
Length () =
Width () =
Height () =Given dimensions of the wall:
Length () =
Thickness () =
Height () =Calculate the volume of one brick.
The volume of a brick () is given by the product of its length, width, and height.
Calculate the total volume of the wall.
The volume of the wall () is given by the product of its length, thickness, and height.
Calculate the volume occupied by bricks in the wall.
The problem states that of the wall's volume is filled with cement (mortar). This means the remaining of the wall's volume is occupied by bricks.
Volume occupied by bricks () = ofCalculate the number of bricks required.
The number of bricks () is the total volume occupied by bricks in the wall divided by the volume of one brick.
The number of bricks required is .
