Answer

Given:

Volume of the cuboid = 448 cm3

Height of the cuboid = 7 cm

The base is square, meaning length = breadth.

Let a be the length of the cuboid.

As we know, the volume of cuboid = l x b x h.

Since the base is square, we can write:

⇒ a x a x 7 = 448

⇒ a2 x 7 = 448

⇒ a2 = 4487\dfrac{448}{7}

⇒ a2 = 64

⇒ a = 64\sqrt{64}

⇒ a = 8 cm

The each side of the base is 8 cm.

Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
