Question

someone empties 6 jugs of milk into a container. -Each jug contains 4 L of milk. -He uses the container of milk to fill cartons. -Each carton requires 250 mL of milk. How many cartons will he be able to fill?

Answer 1

1 container receives 6 jugs of milk (1 jug of milk=4L)

6×4L=24L

The 1 container of milk is used to fill cartons of milk

The 1 container of milk is used to fill cartons of milk (1 carton=250 ml)

Step 1; Convert ml to L

250ml ÷ 1000 = 0.25L

Step 2; Divide

24L ÷ 0.25L = 96

Ans: 96 cartons of milk can be filled.

Answer 2

96 cartons

Explanation:

Capacity of one jug = 4 L

Capacity of 6 jugs = 4 * 6 = 24 L

Capacity of milk in the container = 24 L

one litre = 1000 ml

24 liter = 24 * 1000 = 24000 ml

Number of cartons = Total capacity of milk/Capacity of milk in one carton

= 24000÷250

= 96 cartons
