The capacity of the tank is 240 cm³.

What is capacity?

Capacity means the volume of a solid shape.

To calculate the capacity of the tank, we use the formula below.

Note: When the water from the 8 small containers is poured into the tank that was initially half full, becomes 1.4 full that means the water from the 8 small containers fills the tank 0.9

Formula:

  • V = (8×27)/0.9............... Equation 1

Where:

  • V = Volume or capacity of the tank

Solve for V

  • V = 240 cm³.

Hence, the capacity of the tank is 240 cm³.
