Question

The quantity of water required to fill a jar is 2 L and 450 mL. Thus, the total quantity can be written as mL.

• A. 4.500
• B. 2,045
• C. 2,540
• D. 2,450

Answer 1

The correct option is D 2,450

$\text{Capacity of the jar}$ $\text{= 2 L 450 mL}$

$\text{To calculate the total capacity of the}$ $\text{jar in mL, we have to convert}$ $\text{L to mL.}$

$\text{We know that,}$ $\text{1 L = 1,000 mL}$


$\text{Hence, we will multiply 2 with 1,000.}$

$\text{So, 2 L}=2\times 1\text{L}$
$=2\times 1000\text{mL}$
$=2,000\text{mL}$

So, the total capacity of the jug
$\text{2 L and 450 mL = 2 L + 450 mL}$
$=2000\text{mL}+450\text{mL}$
$=2450\text{mL}$


$\text{Thus, the total capacity of the jug}$ $\text{is 2,450 mL.}$
