Question

4. The amount of water in a tank is twice of that in another tank. If we
draw out 100 litres from first tank and add it to the other tank, the
amount of water in both the tank will be same. Find the amount of
water in each tank now.​

Answer 1

Let the water in tanker be x and water in another tanker be 2x.

It is given that when 100 liters of water is is drawn from 1st tanker and added to 2nd tanker then the amount of water becomes same. So, ATQ

2x-100 = x +100

→ 2x-x = 100+100

→ x= 200 liters

now water in 1st tanker= 2 x

= 2*×200

=400 liters

hence water in 1 st tank = 400 liters and water in 2nd tank =200 liters
