Given: Thickness of the glass = 2 mm, outer length of the tank = 60.4 cm, outer breadth of the tank = 40.4 cm, outer height of the tank = 40.2 cm
To find: Volume of water fish tank contains
i. Thickness oldie glass = 2 mm.
= 2/10 cm = 0.2 cm
Outer length of the tank = 60.4 cm
∴ Inner length oldie tank (l) = Outer length – thickness oldie glass on both sides
= 60.4 – 0.2 – 0.2
= 60 cm
Outer breadth oldie tank = 40.4 cm
∴ Inner breadth of the tank (b) = 40.4 – 0.2 – 0.2
= 40 cm
Outer height of the tank = 40.2 cm
∴ Inner height of the tank (h) = 40.2 – 0.2 = 40 cm
ii. Maximum volume of water that can be contained in the tank = volume of the tank = l x b x h = 60 x 40 x 40
= 96000 cubic cm.
∴ The fish tank can contain maximum of 96000 cubic cm. water in it.
