Andrei has a glass tank. First, he wants to put in some marbles, each of which has a volume of 0.04 liters. Then, he wants to fill the tank with water until it's completely full. If he uses 50 marbles, he will have to add 33 liters of water. What is the volume of the tank?

Answer: 35 liters


Explanation:

Volume of 1 marble = 0.04 Liters

volume of 50 marbles = 50 x 0.04 liters = 2 liters

volume of water added = 33 liters ( Given)

Volume of tank = Volume of water + Volume of 50 marbles

= 33 liters + 2 liters

= 35 liters
