Question

A milkman has containers having capacity of 180 and 162 litres of milk. What
the capacity of largest container that can be used to fill the container completely.??​

Answer 1

Answer:

Capacity of container =180 litres

Capacity of milk =162 litres

Capacity of Largest container =x

X +162=180

X=180-162

X=18 litres

Largest container capacity is 180 litres +18 litres =198.

198 litres would be the largest container that can

be used to completely fill the containers.

PLz mark me as brainliest:)

Answer 2

Answer: 198 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Capacity of container = 180 litres

Capacity of milk = 162 litres

To find : capacity of largest container

As the capacity of containers as well as capacity of total milk is already provided in the question,

To find largest container capacity let us assume capacity of largest container to be x

Hence capacity of container - capacity of milk = capacity of largest container

180 - 162 = x

18 litres = x

Thus,

x +162=180

x = 180-162

x = 18 litres

Hence capacity of largest container = 180 litres +18 litres = 198 litres

Thus we infer that the largest container is 198 litres which can be utilised to fill the containers totally.

Answer = 198 litres
