Answer

6930 liters\text{6930 liters}

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Convert the dimensions of the rectangular water tank to meters.

    The given dimensions are:
    Length (ll) = 2 m 75 cm = 2 m+0.75 m=2.75 m2 \text{ m} + 0.75 \text{ m} = 2.75 \text{ m}
    Breadth (bb) = 1 m 80 cm = 1 m+0.80 m=1.80 m1 \text{ m} + 0.80 \text{ m} = 1.80 \text{ m}
    Height (hh) = 1 m 40 cm = 1 m+0.40 m=1.40 m1 \text{ m} + 0.40 \text{ m} = 1.40 \text{ m}

  2. Calculate the volume of the rectangular tank.

    The formula for the volume of a cuboid is V=l×b×hV = l \times b \times h.

    V=2.75 m×1.80 m×1.40 mV = 2.75 \text{ m} \times 1.80 \text{ m} \times 1.40 \text{ m} V=4.95 m2×1.40 mV = 4.95 \text{ m}^2 \times 1.40 \text{ m} V=6.93 m3V = 6.93 \text{ m}^3
  3. Convert the volume from cubic meters to liters.

    We know that 1 m3=1000 liters1 \text{ m}^3 = 1000 \text{ liters}.

    Volume in liters=6.93 m3×1000litersm3\text{Volume in liters} = 6.93 \text{ m}^3 \times 1000 \frac{\text{liters}}{\text{m}^3} Volume in liters=6930 liters\text{Volume in liters} = 6930 \text{ liters}

    The tank holds 6930 liters\boxed{\text{6930 liters}} of water when filled to the brim.
