The dimensions of water tank are 13cm, 10cm and 70cm. If it is half-filled with water, calculate the volume of water in litres

  • A. 4.55 litres
  • B. 7.50 litres
  • C. 8.10 litres
  • D. 9.55 litres

Correct Answer: A. 4.55 litres

Explanation

Vol of a cubiod = L x b x h

v = 13cm x 10cm x 70cm

= 9100cm

Since it is half-filled = \(\frac{9100}{2}\)cm

= 4550cm

4550cm \(\to\) 4.55 litres
