A village having a population of 4000 requires 150 litres of water per head per day. It has a tank measuring 20 m x 15m x 6 m. For how many days will the water of this tank last? [NCERT]



Answer -

Population of a village = 4000
Water required per head per day = 150 litres
∴ Total water required = 4000 x 150 litres = 600000 litres
Dimensions of a tank = 20mx 15mx6m
∴ Volume of tank = 20 x 15 x 6 m3 = 1800 m3
Capacity of water in litres = 1800 x 1000 litres (1 m3 = 1000 litres)
= 1800000 litres
The water will last for == 3 days
