Question

Quarter liter of paint was used to paint the walls from a 1-litre bucket of paint. The amount(in mL) of paint remaining in the bucket is:

• A. 1000
• B. 750
• C. 500
• D. 250

Answer 1

The correct option is B 750

We know that,
1 L = 1000 mL
Amount of paint used for painting the walls
= Quarter of 1-litre
= Quarter of 1000 mL
= 1000 ÷ 4
= 250 mL
Therefore, the amount of paint remaining in the bucket is
= 1000 - 250
= 750 mL
