Question

The base of a rectangular tank measures 50 cm by 40 cm. It contains 60 liters of water when it is ¾ full. Find the height of the tank. (1 liter = 1000 cm3)

Answer 1

Answer:

40 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h = height of the tank

V =  lwh

(3/4)V = 60 liters = 60000 cu cm

50(40)h = 2000h = Volume of the tank

(3/4)2000h = 1500h = (3/4)V = 60000

h = 40 cm.
