Aquarium Of Dimensions:

Question:
12 litres of water are poured into an aquarium of dimensions 50cm length, 30cm breadth, and 40cm height. How high (in cm) will the water rise?
(1 litre = 1000cm³)

Option A):
10
Option B):
20
Option C):
8
Option D):
6

Correct Answer is Option C):
8

Explanation:
Total volume of water = 12 liters = 12 x 1000 cm³
The base of the aquarium is 50 x 30 = 1500cm³
Base of tank x height of water = volume of water
1500 x height = 12000; height = 12000 / 1500 = 8
