Q11 of 94 Page 228

A rectangular water reservoir contains 42000 litres of water. If the length of reservoir is 6 m and its breadth is 3.5 m, the depth of the reservoir is

We know that,

Volume of a cuboid = Length × Breadth × Height


42000 L = 42 m3 (As 1 m3 = 1000 L)


Therefore,


Height (h) =


=


= 2 m


Hence, option A is correct
