A lorry tank was 4/5 full of petrol when the gauge indicated 72 litres . what was the full capacity of the tank in litres?
72 ÷ (4/5)
=72 × 5/4
=360/4
=90.
The answer is 90litres.
724/5-the 4/5the answer is 72litres
(4/5)x = 72
x = 72(5/4) = .... litres
First of all you do 72 ÷(4/5)
You then reciprocate 72÷5/4
That is 360thus 360÷4
90 that's all pinky out
72 x 5/4=18 x 5 =90
It's all miscellanous fractions
and simple to workout please upvote
Thanks
72÷(4/5)
72×(5/4)
=360/4
=90 litres
Yes, that's correct!
72÷4/5
72×5/4
360/4=90litres
