The correct option is
B 202
Liquid to be transferred = 50 L 500 mL
Capacity of container = 2 dL 50 mL
Convert the numbers into a single common unit, that is, milliliter (mL).
The conversion table is shown as:
So, 1 L = 1,000 mL
∴ 50 L = 50 × 1000 mL = 50,000 mL
So, volume of liquid to be transferred = 50,000 mL + 500 mL = 50,500 mL
Similarly,
1 dL = 100 mL
∴ 2 dL = 2 × 100 mL = 200 mL
So, the capacity of container will be:
= 200 mL + 50 mL = 250 mL
∴ Number of times the container is used to transfer the liquids =
50,500250=202
