Question
How many 5-liters cartons can be filled with 30 liters of water?
- 4
- 5
- 6
- 7
Hint:
Volume/ capacity of a container refers to the space that it contains (maximum quantity that an object can contain).
We will use cross multiplication to find out the number of cartons.
The correct answer is: 6
GIVEN-
Total Quantity of water available = 30 l
Quantity of water in a single carton = 5 l
TO FIND-
Number of cartons required to fill 30 l of water in them.
SOLUTION-
Let the number of cartons required be 'x'.
We know that-
1 carton of water = 5 l
∴ x cartons of water = 30 l
Cross multiplying, we get-
x = (30 l * 1 carton) / 5 l
∴ x = 30/5
∴ x = 6
Hence, 6 cartons of a capacity of 5l each are required to fill 30 l of water.
Final Answer:-
Option 'c' i.e. '6' is the correct answer to the given question.
