Beryl has 2 containers. A and B of different capacities. If Container A is filled by a tap at a rate of 3 litres per minute and Container B is filled by a tap at a rate of 5 litres per minute, when Container A is completely filled, 5 litres of water flowed out from Container B. If Container A is filled by a tap at a rate of 4 litres per minute and Container B is filled by a tap at a rate of 3 litres per minute, when Container A is completely filled, Container B is only half-filled. What is the capacity of Container B?

The diagram shows 3 containers of different dimensions, each separated by a partition. Tank C, measuring 20 m by 15 m by 21 m, is filled with water to its brim. Tank B is an empty cuboidal container with a length of 10 m. Slider 1 is lifted to release 14 of the water from Tank C to Tank B, after which the partition is slid down to separate Tank C and Tank B. Next, Slider 2 is removed and some water from Tank B flows into Tank A such that the height of the water level of Tank B and Tank A is 7 m.
