Question 1 Report
A water tank of height \(\frac{1}{2}\) m has a square base of side \(1\frac{1}{2}\) m. lf it is filled with water from a water tanker holding 1500 litres, how many litres of water are left in the water tanker? [1000 litres = 1m\(^3\)]
Answer Details
The volume of the water tank can be calculated as follows:
Volume of tank = Base area x Height
= (1.5m x 1.5m) x 0.5m
= 1.125 m\(^3\)
Since 1000 litres = 1 m\(^3\), the volume of the tank is equivalent to 1,125 litres.
Therefore, the amount of water left in the water tanker after filling the tank is:
1500 - 1125 = 375 litres.
Hence, the answer is 375 litres.
