8 identical 4-cm cubes are placed in an empty rectangular container of length 72 cm and width 25 cm. The container is then filled with water from a tap flowing at a rate of 10 litres per minute. It takes 13 minutes to fill up ¹₃ of the container. What is the height of the container? Correct your answer to 1 decimal place.
Volume of 1 cube
= 4 x 4 x 4
= 64 cm³ 

Volume of 8 cubes
= 8 x 64
= 512 cm³ 

1 ℓ = 1000 mℓ
10 ℓ = 10000 mℓ

Volume of water in the container
= 13 x 10000
= 130000 mℓ

Volume of ¹₃ of the container
= 130000 + 512
= 130512 mℓ

Volume of the container
= 130512 ÷ ¹₃
= 130512 x ³₁
= 391536 mℓ

Base area
= 72 x 25
= 1800 cm² 

Height of the container
= 391536 ÷ 1800
≈ 217.5 cm

Answer(s): 217.5 cm
