Question 2
A cuboidal water tank is 6 m long, 5 m wide and 4.5 m deep. How many litres of water can it hold? (1m3=1000l)
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×b×h
=(6×5×4.5)m3=135 m3
Amount of water that 1 m3 volume can hold =1000 litres
Amount of water that 135 m3 volume can hold = (135×1000)litres=135000 litres
Therefore, such tank can hold up to135000 litres of water.
