A pit is 10 m long and 2 m wide is filled with 4.8 m cubed of sand. What is the depth of the pit |
|
Answer» 24 CM or 0.24 mStep-by-step explanation:LET the HEIGHT of pit be 'x'Assuming the pit to be cuboidal, we get that:VOLUME of Sand present = Volume of PitVolume of Pit = LENGTH × Breadth × Height⇒ 4.8 m³ = 10 m × 2 m × x⇒ 4.8 m³ = 20 m² × x⇒ x = 4.8 m³ / 20 m²⇒ x = 0.24 m or 24 cmHence the height is 24 cm.Thanks !! |
