<h3>Answer:</h3>

63 liters

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The amount of fuel used per day is ...

... (1 tank - 2/3 tank)/(6 days) = (1/3 tank)/(6 days) = (1/18) tank/day

Then the amount of fuel used after 6+11 = 17 days is

... (17 days)×(1/18 tank/day) = 17/18 tank

and the amount remaining is ...

... (1 tank -17/18 tank) = 1/18 tank = 3 1/2 liters

To find the tank size, we can multiply this result by 18:

... 1 tank = 18×(3 1/2 liters) = 63 liters
