William has a 26 -liter glass tank. First, he wants to put some marbles in it, all of the same volume. Then, he wants to fill the tank with water until it's completely full. If he uses 85 marbles, he will have to add 20.9 liters of water. What is the volume of each marble?

Respuesta :

Answer: 0.06 litre or 60 ml


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The capacity of glass tank= 26 liter

If he add 20.9 liters of water after 85 marbles to fill it completely, then

The volume of 85 marbles= [tex]26-20.9=5.1\ liters[/tex]

Since, the marbles have same volume.

∴ Volume of each marble= [tex]\frac{\text{volume of 85 marbles}}{\text{85}}[/tex]

⇒ Volume of each marble=[tex]\frac{5.1\ litre}{85}=0.06\ liters[/tex]

In milliliters, Volume of each marble=[tex]0.06\times1000=60ml[/tex]
