Question 1034401
 If a rectangular tank measures 7650mm x 2525mm, than what height should it be, if 3 tonnes of water is to be poured into the rectangular tank? 
:
Convert the measures to meters, divide by 1000; 7.65 by 2.525 meters
:
Convert 3 tonnes to pounds: 2204.63 * 3 = 6613.9 lb
Convert 6613.9 lb of water to gallons: 6613.9 * .1198 = 792.34 gallons
convert 792.34 gallons to cu/meters: 3.785(10^-3) * 792.34 = 3 cubic meters
So 3 tonnes of water is equal to 3 cu/meters
:
let h = the height of tank to hold 3 cubic meters of water
7.65 * 2.525 * t = 3
t = {{{3/(7.65*2.525)}}} = .15531 meters which is 155.31 mm
