Answer:

112.5 cubic meters


Step-by-step explanation:

Since area is same and depth only changes, we can find the ratio and multiply the volume by that.


depth of 8 meters is full (volume at 300 cubic meters), so when depth is 3 meters, the volume would be  [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of 300, so:

[tex]\frac{3}{8}*300=112.5[/tex] cubic meters
