Water height calculation

There are 50 liters of water in a filled container in the shape of a regular quadrilateral prism. Determine the height of the water if the edge of the base a = 25 cm.

Final Answer:

h =  80 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} V=50\text{l}\to {\text{cm}}^3=50\cdot 1000{\text{cm}}^3=50000{\text{cm}}^3 \\ a=25\text{cm} \\ S=a\cdot a=25\cdot 25=625{\text{cm}}^2 \\ V=Sh \\ h=V/S=50000/625=80\text{cm} \end{gathered}$$
