Answer:
<em>12,000 liters</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The Volume of Rectangular Prism</u>
Given a rectangular prism of dimensions x, y, and z, the volume is calculated as:
V = xyz
The tank shown in the figure has a base of 5 m by 2 m. The oil has a height of 1.2 m. The volume of oil is:
V = 5 m * 2 m * 1.2 m
V = 12 cubic m
Since 1 cubic m is equivalent to 1,000 liters, the volume of oil is 12*1,000 = 12,000 liters.
