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
Converting each of the given fractions into decimal form, we get,5/6 = 0.838/15 = 0.532/3 = 0.663/4 = 0.754/5 = 0.86/7 = 0.85Clearly, 0.85 does not lie between 0.83 and 0.53Hence the required fraction is 6/7.
