The question simply asks us to know the volume of the box. Hence we need to know the l, b and h of the box.manik11 wrote:If the maximum number of identical cylinders, standing upright and touching the edges, that can be fit into a rectangular box with a square base is 200, what is the volume of the box?
(1) The radius of each cylinder is 5 centimeters.
(2) The height of the box is 80 centimeters.

Still we do not know the height of the box and the base of the box.
Still INSUFFICIENT
Correct Option: E
Dear OptimusPrep
Are you sure we need to know both L & B of the box? it is clearly given that L & B are the same as the base is square.
This question could have been solved easily if one more input was given: That Cylinders are not kept on top of one another. That way the BASE area as well as height of the box will easily be known and hence the volume of the box.
