Question

jada uses a pitcher to fill a pot of water. the pitcher holds 8/10 liter of water. it takes 12 full pitchers of water to fill the pot. what is the total amount of water that the pot holds?

Answer 1

The pot can hold 9 6/10 liters of water

Explanation:

Since you know that the pitcher can hold 8/10 liters of water and that Jada has to fill the pitcher 12 times to fill the pot you would first convert the 8/10 liters that the pitcher can hold to a decimal so that would become 0.8 liters of water and then you would multiply the 0.8 by 12 to get 9.6 liters of water and then you can convert that back to a fraction which would be 9 6/10 liters of water. So the pot can hold 9 6/10 liters of water
