Question

What percentage of 4 liters is 250ml

Answer 1

Given -

250 millilitres

We have to find out the 250 millilitres as a percentage of 4 litres.

Let, x percentage of 4 litres is 250 ml.

we can write it as,

$\frac{x}{100} \times 4 \: l = 250 \: ml$

To solve future it is important that the units of given number should be same.

So, convert l into ml by multiplying the volume value by 1000.

4 l

$= 4×1000$

$= 4000 \: ml$

By putting these value

$\frac{x}{100} \times 4000 = 250$

$x = 250 \times \frac{100}{4000}$

$x = \frac{25000}{4000}$

$x = \frac{25}{4}$

$x = 6.25$

So,

250 millilitres is 6.25 percent of 4 litres.
