Volume Cm To Litres

[Mr-H]

Answer to 2 calculations please:
a. a tank measuring 49x30x24 cm will take how many litres of water?
b. a smaller tank, measuring 49x24x5 cm takes how many litres of water?

1000 cc (centimetres cubed)= 1 litre

[factor-fiction]

49x30x24= 35280
So 35.28 litres

2nd one 58.8

[factor-fiction]

5.88 litres

I think- doing this while watching football

[factor-fiction]

49 x24 x 5 =5880 cm³= 5.88 litres

My Grandad used to say that a 2ft x 2ft x 2ft tank took 50 gallons and if it was full of water you would never pick it up.

@Valmave ..... according to my reckoning, 8 cubic feet of water would weigh approx 226.5kg ...... that would take some lifting lol :P

[Mr-H]

Thanks for all that folks. Being really picky, if the abbreviation for centimeters is cm, would not centimeters cubed by 'cmc'? (lol)

[gingejbee]

Being really, really picky - it's "centimetres" in this country!

[sddsddean]

No, it should be cm³

[sddsddean]

...or even cc (cubic centimetres) as in a 1600cc engine.
