The capacity of a cuboidal tank is 50000 litres of water. Find the breadth of the tank, if its length and depth are respectively 2.5 m and 10 m.

Given: Length = 2.5 m, depth = 10 m and capacity of tank = volume = 50000 liters

We know that, the volume of a cuboidal tank = l × b × h 

Using formula,

50000 = 2.5 × b × 10

50000 = 25 × b m³

On solving for b, we have b = 2

Therefore, the breadth of the tank is 2 m.
