A fuel tanker weighs 2500 tons when 25% full and 3700 tons when 75% full. What is its weight in tons when empty?
I started by trying to find out how much the tank weighes. I tried subtracting the two to find out what t+2/4*oil equals to. I got stuck after here! What should i do next?
When the tank is 100% full, it weighs 10000 tons.
When the tank is 75% full, it weighs 3700 tons.
When the tank is 50% full, it weighs 5000 tons.
When the tank is 25% full, it weighs 2500 tons.
Here is a hint. Can you take it from here?
Hmm cal ty! But i know that i need to find out how much the tank weighs! I never thought of that so it might help.
I got the tank is 1900 tons since when its 75% full its 3700 and when its 25% full it weighs 2500 so 3700-2500 is 50% of fuel which is 1200 tons. So 25% would be 600 tons. 2500-600=
1900 tons.
