We have to find, the value of 4/7 of 560 - 5/8 of 400.4/7 x 560 - 5/8 x 400 = (4 x 80) - (5 x 50) = 320 - 250 = 70Hence, four-seventh of 560 is greater than five-eighth of 400 by 70.
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
