An agriculture field is in the form of a rectangle of length 20 m and width 14 m. A pit 6 m long, 3 m
wide and 2.5 m deep is dug in a corner of the field and the earth taken out of the pit is spread
uniformly over the remaining area of the field. Find out the extent to which the level of the field has
been raised.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of pit=6×3×2.5=45m

3

Now, volume of earth taken out=volume of earth spread in the remaining field

⇒45=[(20×14)−(6×3)]×h

⇒45=262×h

⇒h=

262×10

4

45×10

=

262

4500

=17.18cm

Answer 2

Answer:

Volume of pit=6×3×2.5=45m

3

Now, volume of earth taken out=volume of earth spread in the remaining field

⇒45=[(20×14)−(6×3)]×h

⇒45=262×h

⇒h=

262×10
