Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem in the image asks:
Question: Salimah needs ten 350 ml cups of water to fill up Container X. What is the volume of Container X? Express your answer in litres and millilitres.
Solution:
-
Salimah uses 10 cups of water, each containing 350 ml.
-
The total volume of water required to fill Container X is calculated as:
-
Since 1 litre (L) = 1000 millilitres (ml), convert millilitres to litres:
Thus, the volume of Container X is 3.5 litres or 3500 millilitres.
Would you like further explanation or details? Here are 5 related questions to expand on this concept:
- If one cup contained 500 ml instead of 350 ml, how much water would be needed for 10 cups?
- How would the total volume change if you only used 7 cups instead of 10?
- Can you convert 3.5 litres to gallons? (Hint: 1 gallon ≈ 3.78541 litres)
- If Container X was only half-filled, what would its volume be in litres and millilitres?
- How many cups of 250 ml would be needed to fill up Container X?
Tip: When converting between units, always make sure to remember the basic conversion factors like 1 litre = 1000 millilitres.
