What volume of water is placed in an important rectangular pool if its length is 5m, width is 3m and depth is 1m?

What volume of water is placed in an important rectangular pool if its length is 5m, width is 3m and depth is 1m? How many square meters of tiles do you need to tile the bottom and sides of the Pool?

Let’s find the volume of a rectangular parallelepiped with measurements a = 5 m; b = 3 m; h = 1 m:
V = a * b * h;
V = 5 * 3 * 1 = 15 m³ – the volume of water placed in the pool.

Find the area of the bottom of the pool:
S bottom = a * b = 5 * 3 = 15 m².

Let’s find the lateral surface area:
S side = 2 * (a + b) * h;
S side = 2 * (5 + 3) * 1 = 16 m².

Let’s find how many square meters of tiles are required:
S = S bottom + S side = 15 + 16 = 31 m².

Answer: 15 cubic meters of water is placed in the pool; to lay out the bottom and side walls of the pool, you will need 31 square meters of tiles.
