A particular swimming pool is the shape of a rectangular figure of three dimensions. Its length is 10 meters; it's width is 8 meters, and it's depth is 2 meters. If the pool is 3/4 full with water, how many cubic meters of water are in the pool?

The pool capacity is 10%2A8%2A2 or 160 cubic meters.

When 3%2F4 fill, the amount of water in the pool is %283%2F4%29160=highlight_green%28120%29 cubic meters.
