Consider the cylindrical tank capacity x + 500 then the conical tank capacity = x
After 200 lts pumped out, then remaining fuel with the tanks = x +300, x - 200
It is provided that first term is doubt the second.
x+300x−200=21
Therefore,
x+300 = 2x-400
Therefore,
x = 700
total amount of fuel in cylindrical tank=(500+700)=1200 lit
Cylindrical tank capacity = 1200 lts.
