Answer 2

Let, the capacity of tank is x liter .

initially 1/4 of the tank contains fuel

i.e x/4 liter fuel are in the tank


when, 11 liter of the fuel is powered , the indicator rests at 1/2 mark .


•°• x/4 + 11 = x/2

=> x/2 - x/4 = 11

=> (2x - x)/4 = 11

=> x = 44liter .


Henec, capacity of the tank is 44 liters
