  1. Correct Answer is 36.45 Liters

    This is Shortcut Method to Solve these kinds of Questions.
    Find How much % is withdrawing from the total
    5 Liters is 10% of 50 Liters.
    Deduct 10% from Total then we got 90% means 9/10
    Now, find how many times this will happened. Like in this question this will happen three times. (First, and twice more times)

    So just solve a simple calculation
    50 x (9/10)^3
    = 36.45 liters
    Total x (Remaining %)^Number of Times
