Detailed Solution

Given,
Length of outer box = 5 cm
Breadth of outer box = 4 cm
Height of outer box = 7 cm
Volume of outer= length × breadth × height
=5×4×7
=140 cm3
Wood box of thickness w = 1 cm
Inner Length of inner = l – 2w
= 5 – 2 x 1
= 3 cm
Breadth of inner = b–2w
= 4 – 2 x 1
= 2 cm
Height of inner = h–2w
= 7 – 2 x 1
= 5 cm
Volume of inner = length × breadth × height
=3×2×5
=30 cm3
Volume of wood used = Volume of outer  Volume of inner
=140-30
=110 cm3
Thus, the volume of the wood used =110 cm3
Correct option is 1.
