3
water up to 5
of its height. Half of the water is then poured out. How
much water is left in the container? Give your answer in litres.​

Respuesta :

Answer: 9 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The dimension of the rectangular container is [tex]40\times 30\times 25\ cm^3[/tex]

It is filled with [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex] of the height

Water present in the container

[tex]\Rightarrow 40\times 30\times 25\times \dfrac{3}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow 18000\ cm^3[/tex]

Also, [tex]1\ L=1000\ cm^3[/tex]

[tex]\therefore 18,000\ cm^3=18\ L[/tex]

Now, half of the water is poured out

So, half is left

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{18}{2}=9\ L[/tex]

Thus, 9 L of water is left in the container
