It will fill 1/5 of the tank in 0.7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Capacity of tank is 500 liters

Capacity of 1/5 th of tank = $\frac{1}{5} \times 500 = 100 liters$

Tap can fill 500 liters in time = 3 hours 30 minutes = 3.5 hours

Tap can fill 1 liter in time = $\frac{3.5}{500}$

Tap can fill 100 liters in time =$\frac{3.5}{500} \times 100=0.7 hours$

Hence  it will fill 1/5 of the tank in 0.7 hours
