Solution:

External length of the cuboid = 30cm

External breadth of the cuboid = 25 cm

External height of the cuboid = 20 cm

External volume of the cuboid = (30 x 25 x 20) $xm^{2}$

$= 15000 cm^{2}$

Internal volume of the cuboid = (26 x 21 x 16) $cm^{2}$

$ = 8736 cm^{2}$

Volume of wood = External volume = Internal volume

$= 15000 cm^{2} = 8736 cm^{2}$

$= 6264 cm^{2}$
