Question

Pengelola layanan air minum di desaku membuat tempat penampungan air di dataran tinggi agar air dapat menjangkau seluruh desa. Tempat penampungan tersebu berbentuk kubus dengan panjang rusuk 8 meter. Jika tempat penampungan itu penuh, berapa liter air yang tertampung?

Answer 1

The shelter can contain 512 cubic meters of water.

Explanation:

This question can be translated to:

"The manager of the drinking water service in my town creates a water tank in the highlands so that the water can reach the entire town. The cube-shaped shelter is 8 meters long. If the shelter is full, how many liters of water can it contain?"

As you can observe, the volumetric form is a cube with 8 meters long each edge.

We know the volume of a cube is defined as

`V=l^(3)`

Where
`l=8 \ m`, replacing this value, we have

`V=(8 \ m)^(3) \\V=512 \ m^(3)`

Therefore, the shelter can contain 512 cubic meters of water.
