Question

There is 210 ml of water in the cupoid-shaped container below

Work out the depth of the water in this container.

Give your answer in centermiters ( cm ) and give any decimal answers to 1.d.p

Answer 1

7cm

Explanation:

Since 1ml=1cm³ that means 210ml=210cm³

The volume of a cuboid( rectangular prism) is given by L×B×H

The height of the water is just as good as the depth.

L×B×H=volume

6×5×H=210cm³ (divide both sides by 6×5 or 30 to isolate the variable)

`(6 * 5 * h)/(6 * 5) = (210)/(6 * 5)`

H=7cm

: . Depth of water is = 7cm
