    3/5=0.6

    0.6x100 = 60% (3/5 is 60% of the tank)

    2/3 = 0.667

    0.667x100 = 66,7 % (2/3 is 66,7 %)

    66,7 - 60 = 6,7% (first was it just 60 present, after the 1330 liter water was it 66,7 present. It mean that 1330 liter is 6,7 percent.

    1330/6.7 = 198,51 Liter water (every percent is 198,51 liter water)

    198,51 x 100 = 19851 liter water

    19,950 liters.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x liters be the total capacity of the tank.

    2/3x - 3/5x is equivalent to 1330 liters:

    2/3 x - 3/5 x = 1330

    1/15 x = 1330

    x = 1330 * 15

    x = 19,950.
