A swimming pool, in the shape of a rectangular prism, is 50 meters long, 25 meters wide, and 3 meters deep. A liter is the same as 0.001 cubic meters. How many liters of water are needed to completely fill the pool?

I understand half of this question. You have to find the volume of the swimming pool by using B x W x H, which is 50 x 25 x 3 = 3,750 meters. What I don't understand is how to covert 750 meters into liters. Help...?



Answer :

To find liters from meters, multiply the meters by 1000. 1 meter equals 1000 liters. So, the answer would be 375000 from 3,750. 

P.S. IF you meant 750, then it's 750000

To find liters from meters, multiply the meters by 1000. 1 meter equals 1000 liters. So, the answer would be 375000 from 3,750
