2.
- What is the height of the container?
- Bryan filled 13 of the container with water. Find the volume of the water.
(a)
Length of the base of the container
= √25
= 5 m
Height of the container
= 30 ÷ 5
= 6 m
(b)
Volume of water = Base area x Height
Volume of water
=
13 x Base area x Height
=
13 x 25 x 6
= 50 m
