  1. Length of the tank = l = 20 m

    Breadth of the tank = b = 15 m

    Height of the tank = h = 6 m

    Total population of a village = 4000

    Consumption of the water per head per day = 150 litres

    Water consumed by the people in 1 day = (4000×150) litres = 600000 litres …(1)

    Formula to find the capacity of tank, C = l×b×h

    Using given data, we have

    C = (20×15×6) m3= 1800 m3

    Or C = 1800000 litres

    Let water in this tank last for d days.

    Water consumed by all people in d days = Capacity of tank (using equation (1))

    600000 d =1800000

    d = 3

    Therefore, the water of this tank will last for 3 days
