Question

In a town, 200 people need 900 liters of water to drink everyday. At a festival time how many liters of water do they need to drink with their 50 guests?

Answer 1

Answer: They need 225 liters of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 200 people need 900 liters of water, we divide 900 and 200 which gets us 4.5. That means ONE PERSON needs 4.5 liters of water.

Then we multiply 4.5 by 50 to get the amount of liters 50 guests need.
