A water tank contains 6500 litre of water during transit to a nearby society. 3 by 16 of the water was spilled, find the volume of water in the tank that finally reached the society.
Given:
A water tank contains 6500 litre of water during transit to a nearby society 3 by 16 of the water was spilled.
To do:
We have to find the volume of water in the tank that finally reached the society.
Solution:
The amount of water that reached the society $=$ Total amount of water $-$ Amount of water spilt
$=6500-\frac{3}{16}\times6500$
$=6500-\frac{19500}{16}$
$=6500-1218.75$
$=5281.25\ L$
Therefore, 5281.25 L of water in the tank finally reached society.
