Answer:

Depth of the water in the aquarium is 14 cm.

Explanation:

Length and width of the aquarium is given as 18.5 cm and 15 cm

Amount of water in the aquarium = Volume of the rectangular prism

3885 = Length × Width × Height

3885 = 18.5×15×Height

3885 = 277.5 × h

h =
(3885)/(277.5)

h = 14 cm

Therefore, Depth of the water in the aquarium is 14 cm.
