Question

In the morning a milkman filled 5 ½ liter of milk in his can. He sold to Renu, Lata and Hema ¾ liter each. To Shankar he sold 7/8litre and to Jassi he gave 1 ½ liter. How much milk is left in the can?

Answer 1

Answer:

7/8 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

Milk filled in the morning= 5 1/2 l

                                        = 11/2 l

Renu, Lata, Hema each got= 3/4 l

Total milk given to three of them= 3/4* 3= 9/4 l

He gave milk to Shankar= 7/8 l

Jassi got milk= 1 1/2 l

                     = 3/2 l

Total milk given to all of them= 9/4+ 7/8+ 3/2

                                                = 18/8+ 7/8+ 12/8

                                                = 37/8 l

Milk left in can= 11/2- 37/8

                      = 44/8 - 37/8

                      = 7/8 l

Thus, 7/8 l milk is left in can
