Question

Bobs hardware sells buckets in 5 different sizes. The tiny bucket holds 5 quarts, the small holds 10 quarts, the medium holds 20 quarts and the large holds 40 quarts. How many quarts will the extra-large bucket hold?

Answer 1

Bob's hardware sells buckets in five different sizes.

The tiny bucket holds 3 quarts,

The small bucket holds 6 quarts,

The medium bucket holds 12 quarts,

The large bucket holds 24 quarts and

There is a relation between the size of the bucket and its volume.

We could see with increase in size the units of quarts double

Therefore the extra large bucket will hold 24*2 = 48 quarts
