    A 65 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 42 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 80 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 24 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let capacity of tank = C litres Initially water = (3/4)C After removing 30 L, water = (3/8)C So, (3/4)C − 30 = (3/8)C (3/4 − 3/8)C = 30 (6/8 − 3/8)C = 30 (3/8)C = 30 C = 30 × (8/3) = 80 litres
