Question
The volume of a container is 1440 m3. The length and breadth of the container are 15 m and 8 m respectively. Find its height
Solution
Let the height of the container be “h”
Length of the container (l) = 15 m
Breadth of the container (b) = 8 m
Volume of the container = 1440 m3
l × b × h = 1440
15 × 8 × h = 1440
h = `1440/(15 xx 8)`
= 12 m
∴ Height of the container = 12 m
