Question

how many jars each of capacity 2 1/4 l can be filled from a tank of capacity 28 1/8 l

Answer 1

Answer:

12 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here , Given the volume of the jar = 2 1/4 l

= 9/4 l

Also, Given the volume of a tank = 28 1/8 l

= 225/8 l

Let us assume that 'x' jars each of capacity 2 1/4 l are required to fill a tank

of capacity 28 1/8 l

=>9/4 * x = 225/8

=>x = (225/8)/(9/4)

=>x = 25/2

      = 12 1/2 jars.

Thus, exactly 12 and half jars of capacity 2 1/4 l are required.
