Question

A jar contains 70 L of juice. It is poured into

glasses, each of 150 mL capacity. How many glasses
are completely filled with the juice and how much juice
is left in the jug?

Answer 1

First, we need to convert the volume of the juice in the jar from liters to milliliters, since the volume of the glasses is given in milliliters.

1 liter = 1000 milliliters

So, 70 liters = 70 * 1000 = 70,000 milliliters

Next, we'll divide the volume of the juice in the jar by the volume of each glass to find out how many glasses can be filled with the juice.

70,000 milliliters ÷ 150 milliliters/glass = 466.67 glasses (rounded to the nearest whole number)

Therefore, 466 glasses can be filled completely with the juice.

Finally, we can find out how much juice is left in the jar by subtracting the total volume of the juice used to fill the glasses from the volume of the juice in the jar.

70,000 milliliters - (466 glasses x 150 milliliters/glass) = 70,000 milliliters - 69900 milliliters = 800 milliliters

So, 800 milliliters of juice is left in the jar.
