Question

the capacities of 3 water tanks are in the ratio 4:5:6. the longest of them can hold 3600 lt.how many liters can the other two hold​

Answer 1

Answer:

2400lt & 3000lt

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the capacity ratio of the three tanks is 4:5:6,

let their actual capacities be 4x, 5x and 6x respectively.

Now according to the ques the longest(6x) can hold 3600 lt.

6x = 3600

x = 3600/6

So x = 600

Therefore the capacity of 1st tank(4x) is 2400lt and the capacity of 2nd tank(5x) is 3000lt.
