The ymca lap pool is a right rectangular prism
36.8m long by 20m wide. the pool contains
1472 m of water. how deep is the pool?

2 Meters deep.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply 36.8 m by 20m, you would get the base area of 736 m^2. If you divide that by 1472, you would get 2 meters deep.

To find the depth (aka "height") you must use the volume formula

Volume = length x width x height

In this case:

The amount of water the pool can contain will equal to the volume

Volume = 1,472 m

length =  36.8 m

width = 20 m

height = unknown (let's make this h)

^^^Plug these numbers into the formula given above

1,472 = 36.8 x 20 x h

1,472 = 736h

Isolate h by dividing 736 to both sides

1,472/736 = 736h/736

2

This pool is 2 meters deep

Hope this helped!
