Question

A cistern contains 5 thousand litres of water. If 6% water is leaked, find how many litres of water would be left in the cistern.

Answer 1

Water in the cistern = 5000 liters
Quantity of water leaked = $\frac{6}{100}\times 5000$
= 300 litres
Quantity of water left in the cistern
= (5000-300) liters = 4700 litres
