Question

The volume of a water in a fish tank is 84,000cm the fish tank has the length 60cm and the width 35cm. The water comes to 10cm from the top of the tank. calculate the height of the tank.

Answer 1

Height of tank = 50cm

Explanation:

Volume of water from tank that the water is 10cm down is 84000cm³

Length = 60cm

Width = 35cm

Height of water = x

Volume = length* width* height

Volume= 84000cm³

84000 = 60*35*x

84000= 2100x

84000/2100= x

40 = x

Height of water= 40cm

Height of tank I = height of water+ 10cm

Height of tank= 40+10= 50cm

Height of tank = 50cm
