Question

What is the capacity, in cubic meters, of a swimming pool that is 15 m long, 8 m wide and 5 m deep on the shallow end and 7 m on the deep end?

Answer 1

Is it shaped something like this?

Answer 2

@ParthKohli Yes.

Answer 3

I think it you should calculate the average depth of the pool.

Answer 4

The average depth is the average of the deepest and shallowest ends. Makes sense?

Answer 5

OK, never mind that. You know that the capacity means volume, right?

Answer 6

Okay, I got it. Thanks! @ParthKohli

Answer 7

Hehe. I barely helped.

Answer 8

Well you gave me the idea about getting the average depth. So thanks! @ParthKohli

Answer 9

Well, great that you recognized it! Keep it up.
