By using the given dimensions and volume of water, we will see that the height of the tank is 36.6cm

How to find the height of the tank?

We know that 27,238 cm³ is the volume of water on the tank, and this is equal to 2/3 of the volume of the tank.

So we can write:

27,238 cm³ = (2/3)*V

Then the volume of the tank is:

V = (3/2)*27,238 cm³ = 40,992 cm³

The base of the tank measures 40cm by 28cm, then:

B = 40cm*28cm = 1,120 cm²

Then the height H is such that:

H*1,120 cm² = 40,992 cm³

Solving for H:

H = (40,992 cm³)/(1,120 cm²) = 36.6cm

The height of the tank is 36.6 centimeters.
