NCERT Solutions for Class 6th Mathematics Chapter 1 Exercise 1.2 Question 12

Answer 1

1L=1000ml
capacity of vessel=4L 500ml
                             =4500 ml
capacity of glass = 25 ml
No. of glasses in which it can be filled =
(capacity of vessel) / (capacity of glass)
=4500/25
=180   answer

Answer 2

Solution:-

Total quantity of curd = 4 litre and 500 ml
1 litre = 1000 ml

Total quantity in ml = (4*1000) ml + 500 ml
= 4000 + 500 
= 4500 ml

Capacity of each glass = 25 ml
Total number of glasses can be filled = Total quantity of curd/Capacity of each glass
⇒ 4500/25
= 180 glasses

So, 4500 ml of curd can be filled in 180 glasses.
