Answer:
The correct answer is 3.2 liters. The larger jug can hold 3.2 liters of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the first jug = 3 * 4/5 liters
Now the volume of the second jug = 2 * 2/3 times of the first jug
So, the volume or capacity of the second jug( larger jug) = 2 * 2/3 * 3 * 4/5 liters = 16/5 litres which is equal to 3.2 litres.
So, the capacity of the larger jug is 3.2 liters.

Capacity of the small water jug = 3 ⅘ litres
Capacity of the big jug = 2⅔ times the small one.
= 2 ⅔ x 3 ⅘
= 8/3 x 19/5
= 152/15
= 10 ²/15 litres
Capacity of the large jug 10²/15 litres
