Question

If 13.16 L of milk and 4.28 L of water is poured into an empty can of 20 L capacity, how much more liquid can be poured into the can?​

Answer 1

Answer:

2.56 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Litres of milk =13.16 L

Litres of water poured =4.28 L

No. of litres of liquid can be poured into the can=

13.16 L + 4.28 L = 17.44 L

=> 20 L - 17.44 L = 2.56 L

Therefore, 2.56 Litres of liquid can be poured into the can.

Answer 2

The given data in the above question,

It is given that the quantity of milk poured into can is 13.16L and 4.28L of water,

Capacity of the can is 20L

we have to find the capacity left after poring given amount of milk and water.

Thus, simplifying the above given equation we get,

$20=13.16+4.28\\20=17.44$

Solving further we get,

The capacity left after is $20-17.44=2.56L$

Hence 2.56L more liquid can be poured into the can.
