1. A full can of petrol weights 1.5 kgs. When half full it wights 1 kg. What is the weight of the empty Can?

  • A. 0.2 kg
  • B. 0.2 kg
  • C. 0.2 kg
  • D. 0.2 kg

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let, the weight of the empty can = X
So, ½  of the can = x +1 kg
      1 part of the can = 2(x+1) kg

 So, 2(x+1)= 1.5
 or, 2x+1 =1.5
 or x =.25
