Question

A village, having a population of 5000, consumes 200 litres of water per head per day. It has a tank having dimensions 25 m x 20 m x 10 m. For how many days will The water of this tank last ?

Answer 1

Answer:

For 5 days the water lasts in the tank.

Step-by-step explanation:

A village, having a population of 5000, consumes 200 litres of water per head per day.

So, ATQ

Total water consumption per day = 5000×200

= 10,00000 litres

Dimensions 25 m x 20 m x 10 m.

Volume of tank

$= l \times b \times h \\ \\ = 25 \times 20 \times 10 \\ \\ = 5000 \: {m}^{3}$

As we know that

$1 {m}^{3} = 1000 \: litres$

So,

$5000 \: {m}^{3} = 5000 \times 1000 \: litres \\ \\ = 5000000 \: litres$

Water consumption per day 1000000

So

$= \frac{5000000}{1000000} \\ \\ = 5 \: \: days$

The water lasts upto 5 days.

Hope it helps you.
