Question

A cistern of capacity 8000 litres measures externally 3.3 m by 2.6 m by 1.1 m and its walls are 5 cm thick. The thickness of the bottom is:

Options:
A .  90 cm
B .  1 dm
C .  1 m
D .  1.1 cm
Answer: Option B

Let the thickness of the bottom be x cm.


Then, [(330 - 10) x (260 - 10) x (110 - x)] = 8000 x 1000


 320 x 250 x (110 - x) = 8000 x 1000


(110 - x) = \(\frac{8000\times1000}{320\times250}=100\)


x = 10 cm = 1 dm.
