The volume of the pool is given by:


V=w* l* h

Where "w" is the width, "l" is the longitude, and "h" is the depth.

Solving for "h":


(V)/(wl)=h

replacing the known values:


(3000m^3)/((50m)(25m))=h

Solving the operations:


(3000m^3)/(1250m^2)=h
2.4m=h

Therefore, the depth of the pool is 2.4 meters.
