Question:

Container A holds twice as much as container B, and container C holds as much as A and B put together. If we start with A and B full, and C empty, and pour half the contents of A and a third of the contents for B into container C, what fraction of C’s capacity will be filled?

  1. 56
  2. 49
  3. 512
  4. 49
  5. 718

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

Container A holds twice as much as container B, and container C holds as much as A and B put together. If we start with A and B full, and C empty, and pour half the contents of A and a third of the contents for B into container C, what fraction of C’s capacity will be filled?

Capacity of A = 2x, B = x, and C = 3x

Available Content = 2x + x = 3x

Poured in C = Half of A + One-third of B

Pourd in C = x + x 3 = 4x 3

Fraction of C = 4x 3 ÷ 3x = 4 9
