Marks: +1, -0

There are two buckets, smaller bucket can hold only 3/5th of the water as compared to the larger bucket. If 6,000 buckets of larger capacity are needed to fill a pond. Then how many smaller capacity buckets are needed to fill the same pond?

8000

Validate

Solution:

Let capacity of small bucket = 3 litres and that of larger bucket = 5 litres
Number of larger buckets required to fill the pond = 6000
⇒ Quantity of pond =

5×6000=30,000

litres
∴ Number of small buckets required =

{30,000}/3 =10, 000
