Q. The number of times a bucket of capacity 4 liters to be used to fill up a tank is less than number of ties another bucket of capacity 3 liters used for the same purpose by 4. What is the capacity of the tank?
Option
a)360 liters
b)256
c)48
d)525

• 4x=3(x+4),where x may be number of times 4l bucket is used.
  4x=3(x+4)-->1.
  x=12,
  substitute x to lhs or rhs of 1,which
  gets you the capacity,and it is 48.

• let x be the capacity
  so,
  x/3-x/4=4
  x/12=4
  x=48

• let no of times of bucket of capacity 4 ltrs be x
  no of times of bucket of capacity 3ltrs be x+4
  let capacity of tank be y
  4x=y so x=y/4
  3*(x+4)=y,putting the value of x,we find y=48

• let x be the capacity
  so,
  x/3-x/4=4
  x/12=4
  x=48
