Capacity of the tank = (12 x 13.5) liters = 162 liters.
Capacity of each bucket = 9 liters.
Numbers of buckets needed = (162/9) = 18

24 buckets needed to fill a tank,
capacity of 1 bucket =15 litres
capacity of a tank = 15 * 24
=360 litres
now, if capacity of 1 bucket = 6 litres
to find no. of buckets needed to fill the tank with new capacity (6 litres) of bucket,
we know capacity of the tank,
so, no. of. buckets needed = 360/6
=60
therefore, 60 buckets are required if each bucket has capacity of 6 litres
