    and the volume of water contained in it is 15750 m³. Find the height of the water level in the tank.
    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 tank has the shape of a cuboid.

    We know that the volume of a cuboidal tank = Length × Breadth × Height

    Let the height of the water level be 'h' meters.

    ATQ:

    15750 = 450 × h

    Or, h = (15750/450) = 35

    Required height = 35 meters
