    A rectangular swimming pool has a base area of 1200 m²,

    and the volume of water in the pool is 48000 m³. Calculate the depth of the water in the pool.
    A 40 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 35 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 70 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 30 m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    The pool is the shape of a cuboid.

    We know that the volume of a cuboidal pool = Length × Breadth × Depth

    Let the depth of the water in the pool be 'h' meters.

    ATQ:

    48000 = 1200 × h

    Or, h = (48000/1200) = 40

    Required depth = 40 meters
