Answer:

Each vehicle received
(3)/(20) of the total capacity of the storage tank

Explanation:

we know that

To find out what part of the total capacity of the storage tank that each vehicle received, divide three fourths by five

so


((3/4))/(5)=(3)/(20)

therefore

Each vehicle received
(3)/(20) of the total capacity of the storage tank
