Question

A tank contains 975 / 800 ml water. Find the maximum number of jugs that can be filled if each jug can hold 3/500 ml water

Answer 1

Answer:

+500+ ml = +.5+ L

Each jug holds +3.5+ ml

( is that correct ? )

and

+800+ ml = +.8+ L

Tank holds +975.8+ L

-----------------------------

In terms of units:

[ liters / tank ] / [ liters / jug ] = [ jugs / tank ]

+975.8%2F3.5+=+278.8+ jugs

The number of whole jugs that can

be filled is 278
