A safe amount of chlorine in pools must be strong enough to kill bacteria but notso strong that swimmers' skin and eyes are irritated. Your target is 1 milligram ofchlorine per liter of water.a. The Olympic-size pool is 3 meters deep across its entire length. Calculate thevolume of the pool in both cubic meters and liters (1 cubic meter = 1000 liters).b. How much chlorine (in kilograms) is needed for the Olympic-size pool?c. Explain how you can use similarity to calculate how much chlorine is requiredfor the new pool.d. How much chlorine (in kilograms) is needed for the new pool? An Olympic pool is rectangular with a length of 50 meters, a width of 25 meters, and adepth of 3 meters. Your client wants to build an Olympic-style pool with a similar shape,but with a length of 30 meters.

Given l=30m, w=25m and h=3m Volume of cuboid= l*w*h
