Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5 litres of water

a)Vidya drank 2/5 of the water the bottle contained so, to find how much water she drank you need to multiply 2/5 x 5

=2/5 x 5/1

=10/5

=2 litres

b)Since Vidya drank 2/5 of the water, you need to subtract 2/5 from 5/5 to know how much water he drank.

=5/5-2/5

=3/5
