A rectangular beam undergoing pure bending has a cross section with 100mm width and 300mm height as shown below. At a certain section of the beam, the maximum flexural stress is 10 MPa. The entire beam remains in the linear elastic region and is homogeneous. The plane of bending is about the x-axis.

Determine the maximum moment that the beam can support at that section.
