Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The monthly consumption of milk in family = 120 litres

Due to the festival,

Consumption of milk was increased by 20%

To be found :-

The consumption of milk after the festival

Before, we have to find 20% of the 120 litres milk.

So,

20% of 120 litres

= \frac{20}{120} \times 120

120

20

×120

= 16.66 litres

Hence,

120 litres + 16.66 litres = 136.66 litres

The family consumption of milk after the festival is 136.66 litres
