Question

A swimming pool is 260m long and 140 m wide . If 54600 cubic meters of water is pumped into it , find the height of the water level in it ,find the height of the water level in it

Answer 1

swimming pool is in the shape of cuboid
length =l=260 m
width=w=140 m
height=h

volume=54600 cubic m
l*w*h =54600
h =54600/l*w

h=54600/(260*140)
h=546/26*14

h=21/14
h=3/2
h=1.5m

Answer 2

As the swimming pool is cuboid

So,

Length=260

Breadth=140m

Height=?

54,600cubicmeteris pumped in swimming pool

In this capacity of swimming pool is given.

So,

Volume=54,600cubicmeter

Volume of cuboid=l*b*h

Therefore,

260×140×h=54,600

36400×h=54,600

H=54,600÷36400

H=1.5
