Question

A student need to fill a tank with 9 liters of water. How many 1/3 liters will it take to fill the tank?

Answer 1

Number of
`(1)/(3)` liters required to fill the tank = 27

Explanation:

Amount of water needed to fill the tank = 9 liters

Measure of water to fill a vessel =
`(1)/(3)` liters

Number of
`(1)/(3)` liters vessels required to fill the tank =
`(9)/((1)/(3))`

= 9 ×
`(3)/(1)`

= 27

Therefore, number of
`(1)/(3)` liters required to fill the tank = 27
