Question

An olympic swimming pool is in the shape of a cuboid of dimensions 50 m long and 25m wide if it is 3m deep throughot how many liters of water does it hold

Answer 1

Volume of cuboid = Length × breadth × height
= 50 m × 25 m × 3 m
= 3750 m³

To convert it into litres you should know that 1 m³ = 10³ litres

Volume = 3750 m³ × 10³ litre/m³
= 3750 × 10³ Litre
= 3.75 × 10⁶ Litre

It can hold 3.75 × 10⁶ Litre of water.

Answer 2

Hi !

Litres of water it can hold = Volume of the pool(cuboid) 

Length = 50 m  = l 
Breadth = 25 m = b 
Height = 3m = h

Volume = l*b*h
             = 50*25*3
             = 3750 m³

To convert m³ to litres , 

1 m³ = 1000 litres

3750 m³ = 3750000 litres 

Hence, Litres of water it can hold is 3750000 litres
