Question 1023057: A fish tank has a base area of 45cm2 is filled with water to a depth of 12 centimeters. If the height of the tank is 25 centimeters, how much more water will be needed to fill the tank to the brim? Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Hi there,
Volume of fish tank at present:-
base area x present depth
Volume = 45 cm^2 x 12 cm
Volume = 540 cm^3
Volume of tank full:-
base area x height
Volume = 45 cm^2 x 25 cm
Volume = 1125 cm^3
The volume of water to fill
tank to brim:-
1125 - 540 = 585 cm^3
Hope this helps :-)
