this one is easy for u
start from downwards 24,24,24
take half from both depart me t and give it 2 3rd

let initial no. of tanks they had are x,y and z respectively
i.e.
1st dept 2nd dept 3rd dept
initially x y z
after x-y-z 2y 2z
then 2(x-y-z) 2y-x+y+z-2z 4z
lastly 4x-4y-4z 6y-2x-2z 7z-x-y

according to question
4x-4y-4z=24
6y-2x-2z=24
& 7z-x-y=24
after solving these three equations we get our final answer
x=39, y=21 and z=12
