from the solution we can see that the tank last for 150 days with leakage if 12 lits and required supply of 6 lits. thus capacity of tank=150(12+6) ie 2700.

Question:

A supply of water lasts for 20days if 20 gallons leak off every day, but only for 15 days if 60 gallons leak off daily. What is the total quantity of water in the supply.

Options:
A)

2400

B)

1125

C)

3350

D)

1250

Solution:

Ans: (a)Let consuption is x gallon per day


(20x + 400)=  (15x + 900)

 x = 100

Quantity of water = (20x + 400) = 2400
