Answer:

20 centimeters

Explanation:

Karina's aquarium can hold 80 liters,which is equal to 80,000cm³.The base measure 100cm by 40cm.What is the height of the aquarium in centimeters?Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

The shape of an Aquarium = Rectangular Prism

Volume of the rectangular prism = L × Width × Height

Volume = 80 Liters = 80,000 cm³

Base = 100 cm × 40 cm

Height of the aquarium is calculated as:

80,000cm³ = 100 cm × 40 cm × h

h = 80,000cm³/100 cm × 40 cm ×

h = 20 cm

The height of the aquarium = 20cm
