In a shower, 5 cm of rain falls. The volume of water that falls on 1.5 hectares of ground is:

75 cu. m
750 cu. m
7500 cu. m
75000 cu. m

Correct Answer: 750 cu. m

Explanation:

1 hectare = 10,000 m ²

So, Area = (1.5 x 10000) m² = 15000 m².

Depth =	5	m	=	1	m.
	100			20

∴ Volume = (Area x Depth) =	❨	15000 x	1	❩m³	= 750 m³.
			20
