Question

Find in litres the total capacity of 3 bottles which can contain 69cl, 80cl, and 4l of liquid.

a) 4.49 liters
b) 5.49 liters
c) 5.90 liters
d) 5.10 liters

Answer 1

To find the total capacity, convert each capacity to the same unit and add them together. The total capacity of the three bottles is 5.49 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total capacity of the three bottles in litres, we need to convert each capacity to the same unit and then add them together. Given that 1 liter is equivalent to 1000 milliliters:

1. 69 cl = 690 ml = 0.69 L
2. 80 cl = 800 ml = 0.8 L
3. 4 L (already in litres)

Adding the capacities together: 0.69 L + 0.8 L + 4 L = 5.49 L

Therefore, the total capacity of the three bottles is 5.49 liters.
