Answer:
The dimensions of a liter of water in the shape of a cube is 10cm x 10cm x 10cm.
So, a cubic meter will hold 1000 liters of water.
44,000 liters (divided by 1000) is 44 cubic meters.
The volume of a rectangle (the rectangle formed by the water) is described as the “area of the base” times the height (of the water).
The width of the tank is 4 meters and the length is 5 meters. The area of the base of the tank (rectangle) is 4 times 5 (4 meters x 5 meters) = 20 square meters.
44 cubic meters (the volume of the water) divided by 20 (20 square meters, the area of the base) = 2.2 meters = the height of the water in the tank

Step-by-step explanation:
volume of a cuboid =lbh
so the volume is
[tex](8)(4)(3) = 96 {m}^{3} [/tex]
[tex]in \: litres = 96 \times 1000 = 96000 \: litres[/tex]
hope it helps u
