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
Here, we have to find the value of 7/(8/9) - (7/8)/9.(7 x 9/8) - [(7/(8 x 9)]63/8 - 7/72[(63 x 9) - 7] / 72567 - 7/72 = 560/72 = 70/9 = 7 7/9.Hence, 7/(8/9) is greater than (7/8)/9 by 7 7/9.
