5. A barrel containing Kerosene is 80% full. If the barrel contains 120 litre of Kerosene, after draining out 25% of the quantity, find the capacity of the barrel?  (Question asked by Hima.)

Ans : 200 litres
Let x be the quantity of Kerosene in the barrel.
Then we can easily write
 x-(25% of x) = 120 litres.
i.e x-(25/100 of x) =120
x-1/4 x = 120
¾ x=120
Therefore x= (120 x 4)/3 = 160.
We know that x means 80% of the barrel.
So 80% =160
Then 100% = (160 x 100)/80 =200.
So the capacity of the barrel is 200 litres.
