Question : 11

Total: 40

A rectangular container with dimensions 5 m × 3 m × 4 m is two-third full of water. Find the volume occupied by the water in the container.

$50 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$
$40 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$
$30 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$
$20 \mathrm{~m}^{3}$

Solution:

Concept:

Volume of water = fraction full × total volume of the rectangular container.

Explanation:

Volume of container = length × width × height =

5 \times 3 \times 4 = 60 \mathrm{~m}^{3}

.

The container is two-third full, so volume of water =

\frac{2}{3} \times 60 = 40 \mathrm{~m}^{3}

.
