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
Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- 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 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(21) No(0)
- 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 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- let x be the capacity
so,
x/3-x/4=4
x/12=4
x=48
