Solution

The correct option is D 4
We know that four quarters make up a whole.
As one quarter of the bottle was emptied, we are remaining with three quarters of water.
Water remaining = 3 liters = 3 quarters
Threfore, one quarter equals to 1 litre.
The amount of water that it would contain when it was full is equal to 4 quarters that is 4 litres.
