Barrel

The barrel is filled with water up to 57% of its capacity. When we add two buckets will be filled to 73% of their capacity. What is the volume of a barrel if the volume of the bucket is 12 liters?

Final Answer:

V =  150 l

Step-by-step explanation:

r1=57%=10057=0.57 V1=2 12=24 l r2=73%=10073=0.73  r1 V+V1=r2 V 0.57 V+24=0.73 V  0.16V=24  V=0.1624=150  V=150=150 l
