Math Problem Statement

A large bottle of juice contains 800 milliliters of juice. A medium bottle contains 70% as much juice as the large bottle. How many milliliters of juice are in the medium bottle?

Solution

The problem reads:

A large bottle of juice contains 500 milliliters of juice. A medium bottle contains 70% as much juice as the large bottle. How many milliliters of juice are in the medium bottle?

Solution:

To find the amount of juice in the medium bottle, we calculate 70% of 500 mL:

Juice in medium bottle=70%×500mL\text{Juice in medium bottle} = 70\% \times 500 \, \text{mL}

=0.7×500mL= 0.7 \times 500 \, \text{mL}

=350mL= 350 \, \text{mL}

Final Answer:

The medium bottle contains 350 milliliters of juice.

  2. If the large bottle contained 750 mL, how much juice would a medium bottle (at 70%) contain?
  3. How can you express percentages as fractions for calculations?
  4. What is 70% of 1 liter in milliliters?
  5. If a small bottle contains 50% of the juice in the large bottle, how much is in the small bottle?

Tip:

To quickly calculate percentages, convert the percentage into a decimal (e.g., 70% becomes 0.7) and multiply by the total amount.
