Question

Sebastian's pool is filled with270 cubic meters of water. The base of the pool is 15m long and 9m wide . What is the height of the water in Sebastian's pool?

Answer 1

Height of the water is 2 meter.

Explanation:

We are given that,

Volume of the rectangular pool = 270 m³

Length of the pool = 15 meter

Width of the pool = 9 meter

It is required to find the height of the pool.

Since, we know,

Volume of the rectangular pool = Length × Width × Height

The, we get,

`270=15* 9* Height`

i.e.
`270=135* Height`

i.e.
`Height=(270)/(135)`

i.e. Height = 2 meters

Hence, the height of the water is 2 meter.

Answer 2

to find volume you take length * height * width. in this equation

15 x H x 9 = 270

so take 15 x 9

135H = 270

divide both sides by 135

135H/135 = 270 / 135

H=2

height is 2 meters


H = height
