Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1.1 L
Given:
A rectangular container that has:
a length of 30 cm,
a width of 20 cm, and
a height of 24 cm
It is filled with water to a depth of 15 cm.
When an additional 6.5 L of water are poured into the container, some water overflows.
Question:
How many liters of water overflow the container?
The Process:
Step-1: calculate the volume of rectangular container
The volume of rectangular container is 14,400 cm³, then converted to 14,4 L.
Step-2: calculate the volume of water filled in the container to a depth of 15 cm
The volume of water filled is 9,000³ cm, then converted to 9 L.
Step-3: calculate the volume of water overflow when an additional 6.5 L of water is poured into a container.
The volume of water overflow equals the initial water volume is added to the additional water volume then subtracted by the container volume.
The volume of water overflow =
Thus, the volume of water overflow of the container is 1.1 L.
