Question

A cube-shaped tank with an edge length of 20 centimetres contains 3.75 litres of water.
a. What is the capacity of the tank? Give your answer in litres.
The capacity of the tank is 20 cm x 20 cm x 20 cm = 8000 cubic centimeters.

1 liter = 1000 cubic centimeters, so 3.75 liters = 3750 cubic centimeters.

Therefore, the capacity of the tank is 8000/1000 = 8 liters.
