Question

A drum is two-third full, if 50 L more required to fill it up , how much is the
capacity of the drum?
(1) 150 L (2) 120 L (3) 100 L (4) 90 L

​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1) 150 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount required to fill up the drum

= 1 - 2/3

= 3/3 - 2/3

= 1/3

= 50 L

If 50 L is 1/3rd of drum, then capacity of drum

= (50 ÷ 1/3) L

= (50 × 3) L

= 150 L
