Answer 2

Given: A bucket full of water b weights 50kg, while half-filled weighs 30kg.

Let empty Buket weight be x kg and water weight be y kg.

$x+y=50$....(1)

$x+\frac{y}{2}=30$....(2)

Subtracting equation (1) and (2),

$\frac{y}{2}=20$

$y=40 \ kg$

substitute value of y in eq(1),

$x=50-40\\x=10\ kg$

Hence, empty bucket is 10 kg.
