Dimensions of a cuboidal water tank are:
l = 6 m and b = 5 m and h = 4.5 m
Formula to find volume of tank, V = l × b × h
Put the values, we get
V = (6 × 5 × 4.5) = 135
Volume of water tank is 135 m3
We are given that,
amount of water that 1m3 volume can hold = 1000 l
Amount of water, 135 m3volume hold = (135 × 1000) litres
= 135000 litres
Therefore, given cuboidal water tank can hold up to 135000 litres of water.
