HOLA!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of water in tank=30×20×6=3600cm³

volume of cube=10³ =1000cm³

Volume of water in tank + Volume of cube=4600cm³

height=h of water when volume is 4600 in the tank of length=30,breadth=20 is,

⇒30×20×h=4600

⇒h=7.667cm

Difference in height when cube submerged in tank=10−7.6667=2.333

Volume of water must be poured in tank=30×20×2.333=1399.98cm³=1.4litre

Hope it helps uh unnie :)
