Let the weight of vesel = x kg Then, 1/4 of volume of water = (5.25 - x)kg Full volume of water = (16.5 - x)∴ 4(5.25 - x) = (16.5 - x)⇒ 21 - 4x = 16.5 - x ⇒ 21 - 16.5 = 3x ∴ x = 4.5/3 = 1.5 kg
Let the fraction be N.Then, N / (13/14) - (13/14) x N = 3/65⇒ 14N/13 - 13N/14 = 3/65⇒ (196N - 169N)/182 = 3/65⇒ 27N/182 = 3/65∴ N = (3 x 182) / (27 x 65) = 14/45So, correct answer will be (13/14) x (14/45) = 13/45
