Question 184

Question. 184

A vessel has 13 litres 200 mL of juice. In how many glasses of capacity 60 mL can it be filled?

Answer:

\(220\) glasses

Detailed Answer with Explanation:

Step 1: Convert to millilitres.

\(1\text{ L} = 1000\text{ mL}\)

\(13\text{ L} = 13 \times 1000 = 13000\text{ mL}\)

Add \(200\text{ mL}\)

\(\text{Total} = 13000\text{ mL} + 200\text{ mL} = 13200\text{ mL}\)

Step 2: Find number of glasses.

Each glass \(= 60\text{ mL}\)

\(\text{Glasses} = \dfrac{13200\text{ mL}}{60\text{ mL}}\)

Step 3: Divide in easy parts.

\(13200 \div 60 = \dfrac{13200}{6 \times 10} = \dfrac{13200 \div 10}{6}\)

\(13200 \div 10 = 1320\)

\(1320 \div 6 = 220\)

Result: \(220\) glasses.
