Question

81. The volume of water in a tank is twice of that in the other. If we draw out 25 litres from the first and add it to the other, the volumes of the
water in cach tank will be the same. Find the volume of water in each tank.​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the volume of water in the second tank be x

and the volume of water in the first tank = 2x

ATQ

2x - 25 = x + 25

2x - x = 50

x = 50

now ,

Step-by-step explanation:

let the volume of one tank be x L

let the volume of the other tank = 2xL

the volume of the water in the first tank +25=2x-25

x=50 so volume of water in one tank=50L and volume of the water in the other tank=2X50=100L

Answer 2

Given :

• The volume of water in a tank is twice of that in the other.

• Draw out 25 litres from the first and add it to the other, the volumes of the water in cach tank will be the same.

To find :

• The volume of water in each tank =?

Step-by-step explanation :

Let, Volume of water in one tank be x litres.

Then, Volume of the water in another tank = 2x litres .

According to the question :

Volume of the water in first tank + 25 = Volume of the water in another tank -25

Substituting the values, we get,

➮ x + 25 = 2x - 25

➮ 2x - x = 25 + 25

➮ x = 50.

Therefore, We got the value of, x = 50.

Hence,

Volume of water in one tank = 50 litres.

And Volume of the water in another tank, 2x = 2 × 50 = 100 litres
