    A hall is 15 m long and 12 m broad. If the sum of the areas of the floor and the ceiling is equal to the sum of the areas of four walls, the volume of the hall is:

    A) \[720\,{{m}^{3}}\]              

    B)       \[900\,{{m}^{3}}\]

    C) \[1200\,{{m}^{3}}\]  

    D)       \[1800\,{{m}^{3}}\]

    E) None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Explanation Option [c] is correct. Area of walls = Area of floor + Area of ceiling \[2h\,\,\left( \ell +b \right)=360\Rightarrow h\left( 15+12 \right)=180\Rightarrow h=\frac{20}{3}m\] \[\therefore \] Volume = \[\left( 15\times 12\times \frac{20}{3} \right){{m}^{3}}=1200{{m}^{3}}\]
