A water tank holds 1500 liters of water when it is full. If 2/3 of the tank is full, how

much more liters of water are needed to make the tank full?

fraction word problem

500

Step-by-step explanation: A third of 1,500 is 500, and 2/3 of 1,500 is 1,000. So, 1,500 - 1,000 = 500 liters. Therefore, in order to make the tank full, 500 liters of water are needed.

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
