Answer:

10 cm

Explanation:

Since, the volume of a cuboid is,

V = l × w × h,

Where,

l = length,

w = width,

h = height,

∵ The shape of the aquarium must be cuboid,

We have, l = 20 cm, w = 12 cm, V = 2400 cm³,

By substituting the values,

2400 = 20 × 12 × h

2400 = 240h

$\implies h = (2400)/(240)=10$

Hence, the height of the water in Nemo's aquarium would be 10 cm.
