A) 30 B) 40
C) 10 D) 20

Answer:   B) 40



Explanation:

Volume of the block = (6 x 12 x 15) cu.cm = 1080 cu.cm 

Side of the largest cube = H.C.F. of 6 cm, 12 cm, 15 cm 

                                   = 3 cm.

 

Volume of this cube  = (3 x 3 x 3) cu.cm = 27 cu.cm 

Number of cubes =108027 = 40.
