Answer 1

Answer:

Given:

Width of tank is 90 cm.

Depth of the tank is 40 cm

Volume of the tank is 576 l.

To find:

The length of the rectangular tank.

Solution:

• The volume of the tank is given in litres so will convert it into cm³ by multiplying the term in litres with 1000.
• So the volume of the rectangular tank is 576000 cm³.
• The formula to find the volume of the rectangular tank is LBH.
• Volume of the tank = LBH

 576000 = L×90×40

 L = 576000/90×40.

 L = 160 cm

The length of the rectangular tank is 160 cm or 1.6 m...

hope it helps☻
