Answer 2

Solution:

Let's solve the problem step by step.

1. Initial amount of sauerkraut in the barrel: - Let's denote the initial amount of sauerkraut in the barrel as x kg.

2. Amount taken from the barrel: - 14.4 kg of sauerkraut was taken from the barrel. - Then, an additional 5/12 of this amount was taken.

3. Remaining amount in the barrel: - After these withdrawals, 5/8 of the initial amount remained in the barrel.

Calculation:

Let's calculate the initial amount of sauerkraut in the barrel using the given information.

The amount taken from the barrel can be expressed as: - 14.4 + (5/12 * 14.4) = 14.4 + 6 = 20.4 kg

The remaining amount in the barrel can be expressed as: - 5/8 * x = 20.4 kg

To find the initial amount of sauerkraut in the barrel, we can solve for x: - x = 20.4 / (5/8) - x = 20.4 / 0.625 - x = 32.64 kg

Answer:

The initial amount of sauerkraut in the barrel was 32.64 kg.
