Question

A swimming pool has a length of 100 meters, a

width of 25 meters and a depth of 4 meters
throughout the whole pool. How much water
can fill the pool?

Answer 1

`10000m^(3)`

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a rectangular prism.

The swimming pool takes the shape of a rectangular prism, and we are required to find the volume of the pool.

Given data

length l = 100m

width w= 25m

depth/height h= 4m

We know that the expression for the volume of a rectangular prism is

`volume= length*width*height\\`

substituting our given data we have

`volume = 100*25*4\\volume= 10000m^(3)`

Hence the volume of water that can fill the pool is
`10000m^(3)`
