Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

hlo Monika,

here given that two tanks of 120lit. and 165lit.

we have to measure them by a single tank.so, we can also measure them by 5 liter tanks but in question there is asked the maximum capacity of tank so we take HCF of 120 and 165

it comes 15.

so we can measure 120L tank by 8 no. of times

and 165L tank by 11 no. of times.
