Question

If 94,500 cubic feet of water is to be funneled into a rectangular tank with a floor that measures 25 feet by 90 feet, about how many feet deep will the water be?

Answer 1

The depth of the water is 42 ft

Explanation:

The volume of the rectangular tank = base area × height

The water will take the shape of the tank

So the volume of the water = the area of the base of the tank × the height of the water

94,500 = 25 × 90 × h water

h water = 94500 ÷ (25 × 90) = 42 ft
