Question

$\text{A water tank has a storage capacity of}$ $\text{10 liters.}$
$\text{Calculate the number of cups in 10 liters.}$

• A. $50$
• B. $30$
• C. $40$
• D. $60$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $40$

$\text{We have to convert 10 liters to cups.}$

$\text{As we know that,}$
$\text{1 liter (l) = 1,000 milliliters (ml)}$


$\text{And, 250 ml = 1 cup}$


$\text{So, 500 ml will be equal to 2 cups.}$
$\text{Similarly, 1,000 ml will be equal to}$ $\text{4 cups.}$

$\text{Let's calculate the number of cups}$ $\text{needed for 10 liters:}$

$⟹\text{250 ml = 1 cup}$

$⟹\text{1 liter = 4}\times 250\text{ml}$
$\text{= 4}\times 1\text{cup}$
$\text{= 4 cups}$

$⟹\text{10 liters = 10}\times 4\text{cups}$
$\text{= 40 cups}$

$\text{Hence, there are 40 cups in 10 liters.}$
