Answer:

Depth of Martens aquarium water = 14 cm.

Explanation:

Given:

An aquarium,which is a right rectangular prism.

Length of the aquarium,
= 18.5 cm

Width of the aquarium,
= 15 cm

Volume of the aquarium,
= 3885 cm cubes

We have to find the depth of the aquarium.

Let the depth be
cm.

Note:

Volume of the rectangular prism,V=lbh.

⇒
=
l* b* h

⇒
h=(V)/(l* b)

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒
$h=(3885\ cm^3)/(18.5\ cm* 15\ cm)$

⇒
h=14 cm

So,

The depth of the aquarium water is 14 cm.
