A fish tank is 2 metres long, 50 centimetres wide and 20 centimetres high. How many litres of water will it hold if it is filled to the top ?

It will hold 200 Litres  of water

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of litres of water the fish tank can hold, we will follow the steps below;

Write down the formula for calculating its volume

V = l×w×h

where v = volume of the tank

w=width of the tank  

l = length of the tank

From the question given;

w= 50 cm = 0.5 m

height h = 20 cm = 0.2 m

l = 2 m

V= l×w×h

  =  2×0.5×0.2

  =0.2 m³

we can now change it to liters

V = 0.2 m³ × 1000 = 200 L

It will hold 200 Litres  of water
