    Solution

    The volume of rain water in the land which could have been collected and the volume of water in the tank should be equal . Let, level of water in the tank is h meter. According to the question, тЗТ 6/100 ├Ч 2000 ├Ч 2000 ├Ч 140/300 = 200 ├Ч 10 ├Ч h тЗТ h = 56 m Volume of water in the tank = 200m ├Ч 10m ├Ч 56m = 112000 m3 Since, water in the tank is 70% of its capacity. So, capacity of tank = (112000/70) ├Ч 100 = 160000 m3
