A container can hold 20.13 liters of liquid.

Assume 1 liter = 4.23 cups.

What is the best estimate of the capacity of the container in cups

A. 20 cups

B. 40 cups

C.80 cups

D.100 cups

Answer:

C. 80 cups

Explanation:

As you have the information that 1 liter is equal to 4.23 cups, you can use a rule of three to find the capacity of the container:

1 liter → 4.23 cups

20.13 liters → x

x=(20.13*4.23)/1= 85.14

According to the options given, the best estimate of the capacity of the container in cups is 80 cups.
