    C 7600 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 4200 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 4400 kg Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    For the solid cube: Volume of the solid cube = a┬│ Weight of the solid cube = 400 kg Thus, a┬│ corresponds to 400 kg. For the hollow cube: Outer side length = 3a Inner side length = 2a Volume of the hollow cube = (3a)┬│ - (2a)┬│ = 27a┬│ - 8a┬│ = 19a┬│ Weight of the hollow cube = 19 ├Ч 400 = 7600 kg. Answer: c
