A tank is 3 / 5 full of water .

Let the common multiple be x .

Thus ,

3x of the tank is filled and the capacity of the tank is 5x .

50 litres more are required to fill the tank .

So ...

3x + 50 = 5x

50 = 5x - 3x

2x = 50

x = \frac{50}{2}

x = 25

Capacity of tank = 5x = 5(25) = 125litres

Final Answer :

The tank can hold 125 litres

Answer:

A tank is 3/5 full of water.

it means that 2/5 of tank is is still empty.

to fill the tank completely, 50 litres of water is needed.

so,

2/5 * Capacity of tank = 50

capacity of tank = 50* 5/2

capacity of tank = 250/2

capacity of tank = 125 litres

hope you find it helpful.
