Question

A shopkeeper made packets of 2000 mL of refined oil from a carton of 50 L. How many such packets has he made using the entire 50L?

With statement

Answer 1

In the above question  we need to find the  the number of packet made by using 50l  oil

the data is given as

1packet =2000ml

now first we need to convert the ml into liter

because the final value is given into liter

1ml= 0.001l

now by putting the value we get

$2000ml=2000\times 0.001\\ =2ltr$

now for 50ltr  how many packets made

assume x= number of packet for 50l

1packet= 2liter

x = 50ltr

by simple cross multiplication find the value of x

$2x=50\\x=\frac{50}{2} \\x=25$

so 25 such packets are made for 50liter
