Given,
8 tins contain 48l 125ml in each.
Number of new jars = 5
To find,
Capacity of the new 5 jars.
Solution,
We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process.
Total oil in the 8 jars = 8 × 48l 125ml = 8 × 48125ml = 385000 ml
[Term of unit conversion : 1 litre = 1000 ml]
Capacity of the new jars = (385000÷5) = 77000 ml = 77 litres
Hence, there will be 77 litres of petroleum oil in the each of the 5 new jars.
