Question

Calculate the amount of water which needs to be added to make a 6 L solution when we have 4800 mL of milk.

• A. 1200 mL
• B. 1100 mL
• C. 1400 mL
• D. 12000 mL

Answer 1

The correct option is A

1200 mL

We know that 1 L = 1000 mL
$\therefore$ 6 L = 6 x 1000 = 6000 mL
Now, to find the amount of water needed we subtract 4800 ml milk from 6000 ml solution.

Hence, amount of water needed = 6000 - 4800 = 1200 mL or 1 litre 200 mL
