Question

Challenge!!
10. The amount of petrol in a tank is twice of that in another tank. if we draw out 25 litres from the first and add it to the other, the amount of petrol in both the tanks will be the same. Find the amount of petrol in each tank now.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the amount of petrol in the tanks be 2x and x.

A.T.Q:

2x-25= x+25

So, x=50

Therefore amount of petrol in the tanks before equals to 50 and 100 litres.

So, amount of petrol present in the tanks now

= 50+25=100-25=75.

So, ans- 75

Answer 2

let the amount of petrol in second tank be x

hence in the first tank,it will be 2x

account to the question

2x-25=x+25

x=50

the amount of petrol in second tank =50

hence in the first tank,it will be 100
