@Abhi2610,
Ask yourself; what do I know?
Then ask yourself; what do I want to know?
Do you know enough to answer the second question?
Then make and execute a plan to answer the second question.
Check your answer.

Hint-What is the volume of the metal available and what is the volume of the 4cm cubes.
