Answer 1

Answer:

Time when the tanker was 1/4 = 58 minutes

Explanation:

Time taken by bacteria to completely fill the tanker = 1 hour = 60 minutes

According to the question bacteria becomes double every minute.

So, Just a minute before completion of an hour i.e. 59 minutes bacteria would have filled half of the tanker and a minute before that it would have filled one quarter of the tanker i.e. 58 minutes
