(1)/(4)Answer:

False

Explanation:

A barrel with a 60 liter capacity is half full, therefore there are 30 liters in the barrel.

If we use 240 bottles with a capacity of 1/4 liters, how many liters do we need to fill the 240 bottles?

240 x
(1)/(4)L =
(240)/(4) = 60L

Therefore, it is false because we only have 30 liters, we can't fill the 240 bottles
