Given: For a cuboidal tank,
Length (l) = 10 m, breadth (b) = 6 m, depth (h) = 3 m
To find: Capacity of the tank and litre of water tank can hold.
i. l = 10m = 10 x 100 …[∵ 1m = 100cm] = 1000 cm,
b = 6 m = 6 x 100 = 600 cm,
h = 3 m = 3 x 100 = 300 cm
Volume of the tank = l x b x h
= 1000 x 600 x 300
= 18,00,00,000 cc
ii. Capacity of the tank = Volume of the tank
= 18,00,00,000 cc = 18,00,00,000/1000 …[∵ 1 litre =1000 cc] = 1,80,000 litre
∴ The capacity of the tank is 18,00,00,000 cc and it can hold 1,80,000 litre of water.
