There were some containers of quantity 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 12, 15, 22, 24, 38 liters. Each was filled with some liquid except one. The liquids are milk, water and oil. Quantity of each was like this. Water = 2* milk oil = 2* water. Find out which container was empty and containers filled with milk and oil.

• water=2*milk and oil=2*water
  let take
  milk water oil
  1 + 2 + 4=7
  2 + 4 + 8=14
  3 + 6 + 12=21
  ....
  multiples of 7
  now
  1+3+4+5+6+12+15+22+24+38=130
  so 130/7=18 remainder is 4 so 4 is empty
  now take milk=18
  then water=(2*18)=36
  and oil=(2*36)=72

• let milk is x ltr.
  water=2x
  oil=4x
  so 7x=130 means milk is 18 ltr. in 15+3ltr. containers
  water in 24+12 ltr. container.
  oil in 38+22+6+5+1 ltr containers
  
  4ltr container is empty
