Question

A swimming pool of 25m long and 20m wide is filled with water to a depth of 5m. what is the volume of water when it is 3/4 full?

Answer 1

Answer:

$1875m^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find $\frac{3}{4}$ of the volume, we first must know the total volume.

The formula to find volume:

$volume = length * width * depth$

We know the length is 25m, we know the width is 20m and we know the depth is 5m.

So, we can substitute them into the equation:

$volume=25*20*5=2500m^{3}$

Now we know the total volume, we can find out the volume when it is $\frac{3}{4}$ full:

$\frac{3}{4} * 2500 = 1875m^3$

Therefore, our final answer is $1875m^{3}$.
