A water tank is 1.5 m long 1.3 m wide and 0.5 m deep how many litres of water can it hold

Answer 1

$\mathsf{\huge{Question}}$

A water tank is 1.5m long, 1.3m wide and 0.5m deep. How many liters of water can it hold?

$\mathsf{\huge{Answer}}$

$\bold{Given\:that,}$

Length = 1.5m

Breadth = 1.3m

Height (depth) = 0.5m

$\bold{To\:find,}$

Capacity to hold the water = ?

We have asked to find the capacity of the tank to hold water. It means that, we have to find the volume of the tank.

As this tank is in a cuboidal shape.

So, the formula we use to find volume of the tank is,

Volume of cuboid = lbh

$\bold{[By\:substituting\:the\:given\:values]}$

Volume of the tank = $(1.5m \times 1.3m) \times 0.5m$

Volume of the tank = $1.95m^2 \times 0.5m$

Volume of the tank = $0.975m^3$

$\bold{We\:know\:that,}$

1 cubic metre $(m^3)$ = 1000 litres

So, $0.975m^3 = 0.975 \times 1000\:litres$

Therefore, $0.975m^3 = 975\:litres$

$\mathsf{\huge{Therefore,\:it\:can\:hold\:975\:liters.}}$
