Question

Radha poured 1 litre of juice into two bottles so that the first bottle holds $\frac{1}{2}$ litre and the other holds $\frac{1}{4}$ litre. How much juice is there in each bottle?

• A. 250 ml, 850 ml
• B. 600 ml, 250 ml
• C. 1000 ml, 200 ml
• D. 500 ml, 250 ml

Answer 1

The correct option is D 500 ml, 250 ml

Half of 1 litre = $\frac{1}{2}$× 1 litre
= $\frac{1}{2}$× 1000 ml
= 500 ml
First bottle can hold half of a litre = 500 ml
Quarter of 1 litre = $\frac{1}{4}$× 1 litre
= $\frac{1}{4}$× 1000 ml
= 250 ml
Second bottle can hold one quarter of a litre = 250 ml
