Is this a wind up or are you being serious?

6 jugs = 6 litres = 10% of 60 litres.

19 litres would be almost 32%

to look at your tank drain down
the first top 2 inches that should be
about 10% that's it in layman's terms

You're not really going to use a 1 litre jug though, are you?

 

[bubble87]

that would only be correct if you had a water column of 20 inches. Anything else and it wont be 10%.

Steady on with the blonde comments, especially for a question like that! You`ll make the rest of us blondes appear dafter than we really are

Just a tip for the future........if you want to find 10% of a figure, just divide it by ten .....60 divided by 10 = 6 (or move the decimal point once to the left, 60.00 then becomes 6.00)
make sense? Or have I just confiused you even further?

I just kinda visually divde mine into sections. I look at the edge and think "right that's half (so 50%) so half of that is 25%".........and so on. If I wanted to do 10% I'd just divide the top half into 5 roughly.

Though do yourself a favour and get a syphon......it'll make life much easier!
