Question

A cuboidal water tank is $6m$ long, $5m$ wide and $4.5m$ deep.

How many liters of water can it hold? ($1m^3=1000l$)

Answer 1

Solve for the volume of the cuboidal water tank:

Given: $length=6m,breadth=5m,height=4.5m$

To find the amount of water it can hold is the volume of the cuboidal water tank

So, volume of the cuboidal water tank$=lenght\times breadth\times height$

$$\begin{gathered} =6\times 5\times 4.5 \\ =135m^3 \end{gathered}$$

Amount of water it can hold in $1m^3$ is $1000l$

Amount of water it can hold in $135m^3$ is $135\times 1000l=135000l$

Hence, it can hold up to $135000l$ of water.
