• B.
  30 L
• C.
  40 L
• D.
  35 L

Answer 1

The correct option is B

30 L
As the bucket has 120 L of water.

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> $\frac{3}{4}$ quantity of water= <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> $\frac{3}{4}$ x 120 L
= <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> $\frac{3\times 120}{4}$ L
= (360 <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> ÷ 4 )
= 90 L

Remaining water = 120 L - 90 L = 30 L
