Answer 2

YOUR ANSWER:-

180 Litres

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:-

A water resevoir holds 120 L of water, which is 2/5th of its maximum capacity.

Let the maximum capacity of reservoir be x.

Therefore, 2/5 of x= 120 Litres

=>1/5 of x= 120 L/2=60 L

Therefore, 3× 1/5 of x= 3×60 L

=>3/5 of x= 180 L.
