One Bottle Is Half-full Of Oil And Another Bottle With Twice The Capacity Is One Quarter Full Of Oil. If Water Is Added So That Both The Bottles Are Full And The Contents Of Both Are Then Poured Into A Third Bottle That Is Empty And Large Enough To Hold The Contents Of Both, What Fractions Of The Contents In The Third Bottle Is Oil?

Answer»

Capacity of 1st bottle =100 LITRES

QUANTITY of Oil=50 litres & Water=50 litres

Capacity 2ND bottle =200 litres 

Quantity of Oil=50 litres & Water=150 litres 

Capacity of 3rd bottle = 300 litres 

Quantity of Oil=100 litres & Water = 200 litres 

The fraction of the oil contents in the third bottle is = 100 / (100+200) = 1/3.

Capacity of 1st bottle =100 litres

Quantity of Oil=50 litres & Water=50 litres

Capacity 2nd bottle =200 litres 

Quantity of Oil=50 litres & Water=150 litres 

Capacity of 3rd bottle = 300 litres 

Quantity of Oil=100 litres & Water = 200 litres 

The fraction of the oil contents in the third bottle is = 100 / (100+200) = 1/3.
