Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of length, breadth and height of a room is 4:3:1

Let length = 4x

Breadth = 3x

Height = x

Volume of air contained in the room, V = 12 m³

We need to find the length, breadth and height of the room. The room is in the shape of a cubiod. The volume of a cuboid is given by :

V = lbh


4x* 3x* x=12\\\\12x^3=12\\\\x=1

Height of the room = 1 m

Breadth of the room = 3x = 3 m

Length of the room = 4x = 4 m
