Answer:
70cm
Step-by-step explanation:
,
Since, both of the tank posses the same quantity of water then there volume is the same thing
For rectangular base
Volume= (Lenght × breadth × hheight)
If we substitute values
Lenght= 80 cm
Breadth= 70 cm
height= 45 cm
Volume= 80cm × 70cm × 45cm
Volume= 252000cm^3
For square base
Volume= (side)^2 × height
side =60cm.
But volume of square base= volume of
rectangular base
252000cm^3= 60^2 × height
Height= (252000cm^3)/(60^2 )
Height= 70 cm
Hence, the second tank is 70 cm deep
