Question

Omar is putting 5 liters of water in two goldfish bowls. He spills 200 milliliters of water and divides the remaining water evenly into two bowls? A) How many liters of water was spilt? B) How many milliliters of water was remaining? C) How many milliliters of water does Omar pour in each bowl?

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.2 L

b) 4800 ml

c) 2400 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Total volume of water = 5 litres

Since 1000 milliliters make 1 L

5L = 5000 ml

a) litres of water spilt = 200/1000 = 0.2 L

b) milliliters of water remaining = 5000 - 200 = 4800 ml

c) since it was expressly stated in the question that the remaining water was divided evenly; 4800/2 = 2400 ml in each bowl
