उत्तर

The given tank is cuboidal in shape having its length (l) as 20 m, breadth (b) as 15 m, and height (h) as 6 m.

Capacity of tank = l × b× h

                        = (20 × 15 × 6) m3 

                        = 1800 m3 

                        = 1800000 litres

Water consumed by the people of the village in 1 day = (4000 × 150) litres = 600000 litres

Let water in this tank last for n days.

Water consumed by all people of village in n days = Capacity of tank

n × 600000 = 1800000

n = 3

Therefore, the water of this tank will last for 3 days.
