Question 1125454: A rectangular container is 71 cm long and 66 cm wide.
It contains 60 litres of ink when it is 40% full.
Find the height of the container.
(Round your answer to 2 decimal places if necessary.) Answer by ikleyn(52818) (Show Source):
Let H be the height of the container, in centimeters
Then from the condition
0.4*(71*66*H) = 60000 cubic centimeters ( = 60 liters).
Hence, H = centimeters.
