B=books
Sold half of book: b/2
Bought six more: b/2+
Now has 12: b/2+6=12
Subtract 6 on both sides: b/2+6-6=12-6
b/2=6
Multiply both sides by 2: b=12
Answer= 12 books

The petrol tank at the local service station has a capacity of 6000L. It is 66.06 percent full. How many litres of petrol are ne
Rina8888 [55]


Since the tank is 66.06% full, it is (100 - 66.06) = 33.94% empty.

Its capacity is 6,000L.  So, in order to fill it to capacity, the service station
must order  33.94% of 6,000L .

               33.94% = 0.3394
               "of" means "times"

0.3394 x 6,000L = <em>2,036.4 liters</em> needed, to fill the tank to the rim.
