A cubical water tank can contain 1000/125 cubic meters of water. Find the length of a side of the water tank.

Sagot :

Given:

Volume of cubical tank = [tex]\dfrac{1000}{125}[/tex] cubic meters.

To find:

The length of a side of the water tank.

Solution:

The volume of a cubical tank is:

[tex]V=a^3[/tex]

Where, a is the side length.

It is given that the volume of cubical tank is [tex]\dfrac{1000}{125}[/tex] cubic meters. So,

[tex]a^3=\dfrac{1000}{125}[/tex]

[tex]a^3=\dfrac{(10)^3}{5^3}[/tex]

Taking cube root on both sides, we get

[tex]a=\dfrac{10}{5}[/tex]

[tex]a=2[/tex]

Therefore, the length of a side of the water tank is 2 meters.
