Question

Total $2,500\text{mL}$ of mango juice is to be packed in $5$ containers. Identify the expression which correctly depicts the volume of juice in each container.

• A. $5+2500\text{mL}$
• B. $\frac{5}{2500}\text{mL}$
• C. $5\times 2500\text{mL}$
• D. $\frac{2500}{5}\text{mL}$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $\frac{2500}{5}\text{mL}$

Total amount of mango juice $=2,500\text{mL}$
Total number of containers $=5$

$\text{Volume of juice in each container}=\frac{\text{Total amount of juice}}{\text{Total number of containers}}$

$=\frac{2500}{5}\text{mL}$
