  • Question
  • A rectangular tank measuring 5 m x 4.5 m x 2.1 m is dug in the centre of the field measuring 13.5 m x 2.5 m . The Earth dug out is spread evenly over the remaining portion of the field. How much is the level of the field raised?


  • Options
  • A. 4.02 m
  • B. 4.10 m
  • C. 4.20 m
  • D. 4.30 m

  • Correct Answer
  • 4.02 m 

    Explanation

    Volume of Earth dug out = 5 x 4.5 x 2.1 = 47.25 m2
    Area over which Each is spread = 13.5 x 25 - 5 x 4.5
    = 33.75 - 220 = 11.75 m
    Rise in level = 47.25/11.75 = 4.02 m
