Answer 2

Answer:

100 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :one third of tank is filled with water.when another 100 litres of water was poured in,it became half full.

To Find:how many liters of water can hold it all

Solution:

Let water can be hold by tank be x liter

A.T.Q

$\frac{x}{3}+100=\frac{x}{2}$

$100=\frac{x}{2}-\frac{x}{3}$

$100=\frac{3x-2x}{6}$

$100=\frac{x}{6}$

$600=x$

Thus it can hold 100 liters of water.
