To find the width of the pond, we can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:
Volume
=
Length
×
Width
×
Height
Volume=Length×Width×Height
Given:
Length (L) = 4.2 meters
Depth (D) = 50 centimeters = 0.5 meters
Volume = 7.35 cubic meters
Let's denote the width as W. We can rearrange the formula to solve for the width:
Width
=
Volume
Length
×
Height
Width=
Length×Height
Volume
Substituting the given values:
Width
=
7.35

Width=
4.2×0.5

Width=3.5
So, the width of the pond is 3.5 meters.
