Question

The area of the base of a rectangular tank is 6500 cm square and the volume of water contained in it is 2.6 cubic metre. Find the depth of water in the tank.

Answer 1

Area of a base of rectangular tank =6500cm2
l.b=13/20m2
volume of water in the tank=2.6m3
l.b.h=2.6
h=2.6/l.b
=26*20/13
=4m
hope you will understand my words

Answer 2

$\huge\underline\mathbb {SOLUTION:-}$

Answer:

• Depth of water in the tank = 4 m.

Given:

• The area of the base of a rectangular tank is 6500 cm square.
• The volume of water contained in it is 2.6m cubic metre.

Need To Find:

• The depth of water in the tank = ?

Explanation:

$\underline\mathsf \blue {According\:to\:question\: :-}$

• The water tank is in the form of a cuboid.

Area of a base of rectangular tank =

• $\mathsf {L \times B = 6500 \: \: cm^2\:(Given) }$

Volume of water contained in it =

• $\mathsf {L.B.H = 2.6 \: m {}^{3}\:(Given)}$

Depth of the water = Height of the tank

$\implies \mathsf {Height = \frac{L.B.H}{L.B} = \frac{2.6 \: m^3} {6500 \: {cm}^2} }$

Here:

• We know that 1 m = 100 cm

$\underline\mathsf \red {Therefore \: :-}$

$\mathsf {Height = \frac{2.6}{0.65} }$

$\implies \mathsf {\frac{26}{6.5} }$

$\implies \mathsf {\cancel {\dfrac{260}{65}} }$

$\implies \mathsf \blue {4\:m}$

∴ Depth of water in the tank = 4‬ m.

$\underline\mathsf \pink {Here\: :-}$

• L is used for Length.
• B is used for Breadth.
• H is used for Height.
