1. **Problem statement:** Find the missing side length of each rectangular solid given the volume.
2. **Formula:** Volume of a rectangular solid is given by $$V = l \times w \times h$$ where $l$, $w$, and $h$ are the lengths of the sides.
3. **(i) Find $d$:**
Given $l=8$ cm, $w=3$ cm, $d$ unknown, and volume $V=240$ cm³.
$$240 = 8 \times 3 \times d$$
$$240 = 24d$$
Divide both sides by 24:
$$\frac{240}{\cancel{24}} = \frac{24d}{\cancel{24}}$$
$$10 = d$$
So, $d = 10$ cm.
4. **(ii) Find $b$:**
Given $l=6$ m, $w=10$ m, $b$ unknown, and volume $V=150$ m³.
$$150 = 6 \times 10 \times b$$
$$150 = 60b$$
Divide both sides by 60:
$$\frac{150}{\cancel{60}} = \frac{60b}{\cancel{60}}$$
$$2.5 = b$$
So, $b = 2.5$ m.
5. **(iii) Find $c$:**
Given $l=14$ cm, $w=8$ cm, $c$ unknown, and volume $V=672$ cm³.
$$672 = 14 \times 8 \times c$$
$$672 = 112c$$
Divide both sides by 112:
$$\frac{672}{\cancel{112}} = \frac{112c}{\cancel{112}}$$
$$6 = c$$
So, $c = 6$ cm.
6. **Problem statement:** The volume of a cube is 125 cm³. Find (i) the length of the side, (ii) the surface area.
7. **Formula:**
- Volume of cube: $$V = s^3$$ where $s$ is the side length.
- Surface area of cube: $$A = 6s^2$$
8. **(i) Find side length $s$:**
$$125 = s^3$$
Take cube root:
$$s = \sqrt[3]{125} = 5$$
So, side length $s = 5$ cm.
9. **(ii) Find surface area:**
$$A = 6 \times 5^2 = 6 \times 25 = 150$$
So, surface area $A = 150$ cm².
