1. Problem Description
We are given a rectangular tank with length 250 cm and width 120 cm. We pour 180 liters of water into the tank. We need to calculate the height of the water in the tank in cm.
2. Solution Steps
First, we need to convert the volume of water from liters to cubic centimeters. We know that 1 liter = 1000 cubic centimeters.
Next, we know that the volume of a rectangular prism (which the water will form) is given by:
where is the volume, is the length, is the width, and is the height.
We are given the length cm, the width cm, and the volume cm. We need to find the height .
Therefore, the height of the water in the tank is 6 cm.
3. Final Answer
A. 6.0cm
