Question

5 bottles are filled with oil. Each bottle can hold 0.45 litres of oil. How much oil can be filled in the bottles?

• A. 225 litre
• B. 22.5 litre
• C. 2.25 litre
• D. 2 litre

Answer 1

The correct option is C

2.25 litre

First we multiply

5 x 45 = 225

Since there are 2 digits after the decimal point in 5 x 0.45, we put decimal point after two places starting from the extreme right.

5 x 0.45 = 2.25

So, 5 bottles can hold 2.25 litres of oil.
