Question

A cuboidal water tank is 6 m long, 5 m wide and 4.5 m deep. How many litres of water can it hold?

• A. 135000
• B. 136000
• C. 125000
• D. 145000

Answer 1

The correct option is A 135000

The given cuboidal water tank has its length (l) as 6 m, breadth (b) as 5m, and height (h) as 4.5 m.

Volume of the tank = $l\times b\times h$
= 6 x 5 x 4.5
$=135m^3$

$\because 1m^3=1000\text{litres}$

$\therefore 135m^3=(135\times 1000)\text{litres}$
$=135000\text{litres}$

Therefore, the water tank can hold up to 135000 litres of water.
