1. Three-fourth petrol of a reservoir is used to fill the petrol tanks of five trucks having the same storege capacity; What part of the total capacity of the petrol reservoir did each truck receive?
- A. 3/20
- B. 3/20
- C. 3/20
- D. 3/20
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Let the capacity of each truck and the reservoir be T and R respectively.
Total capacity of five trucks = 5T
According to the question, 5T = 3/4 of R
or, T = 3/4 x R / 5 = (3/20) R
So, each truck received 3/20 of the reservoir.
