The capacity of cuboid tank is 50000 litres of water. Find breadth of tank, if its length is 2.5 m and its depth is 10 m?
The capacity of cuboid tank is 50000 litres of water. Find breadth of tank, if its length is 2.5 m and its depth is 10 m?
Explanation
Given:
Capacity = 50000 litres = 50 cubic meters (since 1 cubic meter = 1000 litres)
Length (l) = 2.5 m
Depth (h) = 10 m
Let's use the formula for the volume of a cuboid:
Volume = length × breadth × height
50 = 2.5 × breadth × 10
Now, solve for breadth (b):
50 = 25b
b = 50/25
b = 2 m
