Question

A cuboidal tank can hold 650 litres of milk. If it is 130 cm long and 250 cm wide, then the height of the tank is .

• A. 20 cm
• B. 25 cm
• C. 30 cm

Answer 1

The correct option is A 20 cm

Volume of the cuboidal tank $=650litres=650\times 1000c{m}^3=650000c{m}^3$

We know that the volume of a cuboid
$=l\times b\times h$

$\therefore 650000=130\times 250\times h\Rightarrow h=\frac{650000}{130\times 250}\Rightarrow h=20cm$

Hence, the height of the tank is 20 cm.
