Answer 1

The area of the base of a rectangular tank is 6500 cm² and the volume of water contained in it is 2.6 m³. The depth of water in the tank is 4 m.

Explanation:

Area of the base of a rectangular tank

= 6500 cm²

`= (6500/(100xx100)) "m"^2`

`= 13/20 "m"^2`

Let the depth of the water be d meters.

Then,

`13/20xx"d"=2.6`

`=> "d" = (26/10xx20/13) "m"`

`=> "d" = 4  "m"`
