The remaining part of the oil tank that needs to be filled
= 1 - 3/8
= 8/8 - 3/8
= 5/8
5/8 ~ 180 liters
1 ~ x liters
(5/8)/1 = 180/x
5/8 = 180/x
5x = 180 × 8
5x = 1440
x = 1440 : 5
x = 288 liters
= 1 - 3/8
= 8/8 - 3/8
= 5/8
5/8 ~ 180 liters
1 ~ x liters
(5/8)/1 = 180/x
5/8 = 180/x
5x = 180 × 8
5x = 1440
x = 1440 : 5
x = 288 liters
