The capacity of a certain cuboidal tank ...

The capacity of a certain cuboidal tank is 50000 litres of water. Find the breadth of the tank, if its height and length are 10m and 2.5m respectively.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Giventhat
Capacity of the cuboidal water tank = `50,000 Litre`
We know
`1000 Litre = 1m³`
`50,000 Litres = 50000/1000 m^3`
`50m^3`
Volume = `50m^3`
Length `(l) = 2.5m`
Height (or depth) `(h)= 10m`
Let the breadth be ` b `
Volume `= l xx b xx h`
`50 = (25)/(10) xx b xx 10`
`(50xx10)/(25xx10)=b`
`b=2`
breadth of the tank is `2m`
