Question

• A. 100 mL
• B. 200 mL
• C. 300 mL
• D. 400 mL

Answer 1

The correct option is D

400 mL

$\text{Capacity of 5 cups}=2\text{litres}$

When we convert a larger unit (L) to a smaller unit (mL), we multiply the given measure by powers of 10.

$\therefore \text{Capacity of 5 cups}=2\times 1000\text{mL}(\because 1\text{litre}=1000\text{mL})$
$=2000\text{mL}$
$\Rightarrow \text{Capacity of 1 cup}=\frac{2000}{5}\text{mL}$
$=400\text{mL}$

Thus, the capacity of 1 cup equals 400 mL.
