A soda water container was 4/5 full. When 6 bottles of soda water were taken out and four bottles of soda water were poured into it, it was 3/4 full. How many bottles of soda water can the container contain?

• 40 bottles
  
  If container contains 'x' bottles, then (4x/5) -6 +4 =3x/4 or (4x/5) -2=3x/4, x=40

• let the volume of soda water contained by a bottle be x,
  initially the conatiner was 4/5 full..
  (4/5)-6x+4x=(3/4)
  on solving,x=(1÷40)
  thus the container may contain 40 bottles of soda water
