A rectangular tank measuring 55 cm by 40 cm by 15 cm is completely filled with cooking wine. Cooking Wine from the tank is poured into an empty cubical container of edge 16 cm until the cubical container is half-filled. What is the height of the cooking wine in the tank after some cooking wine is poured out? Correct your answer to 1 decimal place.
Volume of the tank
= 40 x 55 x 15
= 33000 cm³ 

Volume of half of the cubical container
= 16 x 16 x 16 x ¹₂
= 2048 cm³ 

Volume of cooking wine left in the tank
= 33000 - 2048
= 30952 cm³ 

Base area of the tank
= 55 x 40
= 2200 cm² 

Height of cooking wine left in the tank
= 30952 ÷ 2200
≈ 14.1 cm

Answer(s): 14.1 cm
