    A 675 liters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    C 600 liters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 630 liters Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Pipe A alone fill 50 liters per hour, so Pipe B alone fill 100 liters per hour. Capacity of the tank = T => T/50 – T/100 = x – (x – 6) => 2T – T = 600 => T = 600 liters
