Question

If the volume capacity of 6 glass water is 3 liters, then the volume capacity of 2 glass water is ______.

• A. 1.5 L
• B. 600 ml
• C. 500 ml
• D. 1 L

Answer 1

The correct option is D 1 L

$\text{Capacity of 6 glass water}=3\text{litres}$

When we convert a larger unit (L) to a smaller unit (mL), we multiply the given measure by powers of 10.

$\therefore \text{Capacity of 6 glass}=3\times 1000\text{mL}(\because 1\text{litre}=1000\text{mL})$
$=3000\text{mL}$
$\Rightarrow \text{Capacity of 1 glass}=\frac{3000}{6}\text{mL}$
$=500\text{mL}$
$\Rightarrow \text{Capacity of 2 glass}=2\times 500=1000\text{mL}=1\text{L}$
Thus, the volume capacity of 2 glass equals 1 litre.
