Answer 2

The capacity of the can is 36 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the capacity be x

A can is 3/4 full

So, Amount of milk in can = $\frac{3}{4}x$

We are given that when 12 liters is drawn from it , It is 5/12 full

So,$\frac{3}{4}x-12=\frac{5}{12}x\\\frac{9x-5x}{12}=12\\\frac{4x}{12}=12\\x=\frac{12 \times 12}{4}\\x=36$

Hence The capacity of the can is 36 liters
