Question

1/4 of the tank is contained fuel .when 11 litres of fuel is poured into the tank the indicator rest at 1/2 mark . find the capacity

Answer 1

Find the fraction of the fuel poured in:

1/2 - 1/4 = 1/4

Find the capacity:

Given that the fuel poured in = 11 litres

1/4 of the tank = 11 litres

4/4 of the tank = 11 x 4 = 44 litres

Answer: The capacity of the tank is 44 litres

Answer 2

Hey !

_____________________

$Actual \: fraction = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{4} \\ \\ \frac{1}{4} \: of \: tank = 11 itres \\ \\ \frac{4}{4} of\: the \:tank = 11 × 4 = 44 \: litres$
