Question

John has a jar filled with juice. After he poured 350 ml of juice in each 8

glasses he was still left with 200 ml juice in the jar. What was the capacity
of jar in liters?

Answer 1

Explanation:

If there were 8 glasses of juice, and 350 ml was poured into each glass, then the total amount of juice poured into the glasses would be 8 x 350 = 2800 ml.

After pouring this much juice, John was still left with 200 ml juice in the jar.

Therefore, the capacity of the jar would be the total amount of juice poured into the glasses plus the amount remaining in the jar, which is 2800 ml + 200 ml = 3000 ml.

To convert this volume to liters, we can divide by 1000. Therefore, the capacity of the jar in liters would be 3000 ml / 1000 = 3 liters.

So, the capacity of the jar is 3 liters.
