Fuel wood is measured in cords. The number of cords in a pile l ft long, w ft wide, and h ft tall can be estimated using the equation number of cords=lwh128 . Orin measures a pile of wood to be 18 ft long by 24 ft wide. Which equation can be used to determine the number of cords in a pile of wood h ft tall?
number of cords = 128h
number of cords=128h432
number of cords = 432h
number of cords=432h128

Since the equation is lwh * 128 and we know that l = 18 and w =24

18 * 24 = 432

432 * h * 128

So, D. is the answer.

Answer: Thus, Fourth option is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of pile of wood = 18 ft

Width of pile of wood = 24 ft

Let the height of pile of wood be 'h' ft.

According to question,

Using the equation, the number of cords is given by


l* w* h* 128\\\\=18* 24* h* 128\\\\=432h* 128

Hence, the number of cords would be 432h128.

Thus, Fourth option is correct.
