All the water in a big tank A is emptied into two smaller empty tanks B and C . The volume of water C is 33.3% of that in A . If 300 litres of water , which had gone into B gad instead gone into C , B would have 50% more water than C. What was the volume of water in A ? ( in liters )

Question

Shubham Mishra · Answer

Ans - 3000 lt. 
1/3 of A + 300 lt = 1200, and B would be 1800 (50% more than C), hence 3000 lt.
