Question

A bottle has a capacity of 1 unit. From the given plot, determine the units of space is left in the bottle when it was filled to its maximum.

• A. $\frac{2}{5}units$
• B. $\frac{4}{5}units$
• C. $\frac{1}{5}units$
• D. $\frac{3}{5}units$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\frac{4}{5}units$


$\text{The maximum quantity of bottle}$ $\text{filled =}\frac{1}{5}units$

$\text{The capacity of the bottle =}\frac{1\times 5}{1\times 5}=\frac{5}{5}units$

$\text{Find the space left in the}$ $\text{bottle by subtracting}\frac{1}{5}\text{from}\frac{5}{5}.$

$\text{So, space left =}$
$\frac{5}{5}-$ $\frac{1}{5}=$$\frac{5-1}{5}=$ $\frac{4}{5}units$
