The question states that "60 litres of it are taken out of the vessel every day". "It" refers to the petrol. Hence, 60 litres of petrol are taken out of the vessel every day. Are we supposed to realize that kerosene oil cannot be separated from petrol when it is in a vessel?

It refers to "vessel" and not to 180lts of petrol...mixture question... both are extracts from one crude component at various temperatures. it is a possible mixture. Some poor people mix kerosene in petorl to run their vehicles as kerosene in some countries wont go under road tax and is cheap... ;)

Good point BarryLi, as soon as I realized that, HSPA already came up with their brilliant work under assumption and made me wait for someone of your insight to come forward and object it. Edited man, thanks
