    1/4 to 2/3

    2/3-1/4=8/12-3/12=5/12

    so the change is 5/12

    the volume of the tank and dimentions are irrelivant for now

    so

    3000 cubic inches was added and that was a change of 5/12

    5/12 of full=3000

    times both sides by 12/5

    full=7200

    the capacity is 7200 cubic inches
