Question 12
A vessel has 4 litres and 500 ml of curd. In how many glasses each of 25 ml capacity, can it be filled?
Capacity of curd in a vessel = 4 litres 500 ml
We know that 1 litre = 1000ml
⇒ 4l x 1000 ml + 500 ml = 4500 ml
Capacity of one glass = 25 ml
∴ Number of glasses that can be filled = 4500÷25
Therefore, 180 glasses can be filled by the given amount of curd.
