Hi there,

Sol:
Length of the swimming pool = 260 m
Breadth of the swimming pool = 140 m

Let the height of the water in the swimming pool after pouring water be h meters.

Volume of the water poured = 54600 m3

l x b x h = 54600
260 x 140 x h = 54600
h = (54600) / (260 x 140)
h = 1.5 m = 150 cm

Hope it helps
