Question

the area of square base of a water tank is 4m² and the height of the tank is 2.5m. find the capacity of the tank.in litre​

Answer 1

10000L

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Area of square base = 4m²

Height of tank = 2.5m

Unknown:

Capacity of tank = ?

Solution:

The capacity of the tank is the volume of tank;

Volume of the tank = base area x height

Insert the parameters and solve;

Volume of the tank = 4 x 2.5 = 10m³

Now convert m³ to Litre;

1m³ = 1000L

10m³ will be 10 x 1000 = 10000L
