The dimensions in figure are in which unit? mm, m, cm? Please tell me.

According to the answer, the dimensions should be in cm.

So,
Quantity is - (500 cm ) x (400 cm ) x (500 cm) or 5m x 4m x 5m = 20m x 5m =100m
& rate is 450 for %cum means 450 rs for 100cum and answer is 450.

E/W= 5 * 0.5 * 0.4 = 1 m3.

The Cost of E/W= 1 * 450 = 450.
