It will need 864 meters³ of water to fill it completely
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the volume of a prism is V = B h, where
- B is the area of its base
- h is the length of its height
The swimming pool is shaped a prism
∵ The length of each side of the four sides is 12 meters
- That means its base is shaped a square with side length 12 meters
∵ Area of a square = (side)²
∴ The area of the base of the swimming pool = (12)² = 144 meters²
∴ B = 144
∵ The pool is 6 meters deep
- That means its height is 6 meters
∴ h = 6
The volume of the water in the swimming pool is equal to the volume of the swimming pool because it will be needed to fill completely
∴ The volume of the water = B h
∴ The volume of the water = 144(6)
∴ The volume of the water = 864 meters³
It will need 864 meters³ of water to fill it completely
