Answer 1

Answer:

5 small containers will be  required and used.

This water is used to fill four and half  small containers exactly.

4.5 small containers

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangular container has dimensions 12*12*45 cm  and the small container has dimensions 6*5*8 cm

The rectangular container with a square base is 2/3 full of water.The height is used up to 45*2/3= 7.5 cm

The volume of the water in the rectangular container with a square base is

12*12*7.5= 1080 cm³

The volume of the water in the smaller container is

6*5*8= 240 cm³

Number of smaller containers required = Volume of large container / Volume of smaller container

Number of smaller containers required =1080 cm³/240 cm³= 4.5

This water is used to fill four and half  small containers exactly.
