Question

If the length, width and height of a cuboidal water tank are 2.5 m, 3 m and 4 m respectively, find the capacity of the tank in litres.

Answer 1

Answer: Volume of a cuboid of length l, breadth b and height h =l×b×h

So, the volume of the tank =2×1.6×1.8=5.76 m

3

One m

3

 can occupy 1000 litres.

Hence, 5.76 m

3

 can occupy 5.76×1000=5760 litres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

The capacity of water tank in litres is 30,000 litres.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the que,

Volume of cuboid = l × b × h

Volume of tank = 2.5 × 3 × 4 = 30 m³

We know that,

1 m³ can occupy 1000 litres

=> 30 × 1000

=> 30,000 litres

Hence, The capacity of water tank is 30,000 L.
