Answer:
A total of 8 (eight) completely filled cups.
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that 1 milliliter is the SAME as 1 cubic cm. Therefore, the 275 ml cup holds exactly 275 cm^3 of water.
Now calculate the volume of water in the container. Since the container measures 19 cm x 6 cm x 30 cm, its total volume is:
Volume = 19 x 6 x 30 = 3420 cm^3
The amount of water in it fills 2/3 of its volume, then:
amount of water = 2/3 (3420) = 2280 cm^3
Now to find how many cups can be filled with such amount of water, we do the division:
2280 / 275 = 8.29
Then the maximum number of completely filled cups is: 8
