A village having a population of 3600, requires 125 litres of water per head per day. It has a tank 25m long, 18m broad
and 5m high. For how many days the water of the tank will last.
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a tank= l*w*t
Volume= 25*18*5= 2250m3
1m3 =1000litres
2250m3 =2250,000l
1 day= 125*3600=450,000liters
If I day = 450,000
What about 2,250 000
225000/450000 = 5 days
Step-by-step explanation
The very first thing in this case is to determine the capacity of the tank by calculating the volume of water in which it can hold in litres.
After knowing how much the tank hold, it is now possible to estimate and calculate the number of liters that the people consume in a day to be able to see how many days the water will last.
With the xact number of litres that are being used in a day, the number of days that it will last can now be calculated by dividing the capacity of the tank with the litres consumed daily .
