Fraction of remaining juice left after Bryan spilled some
= 1 -

13The volume of the remaining juice is the combined repeated identity. Make the volume of remaining juice the same. LCM of 1 and 5 is 5.
Volume of water left = 1 u
1 u = 120
Total volume of water that Bryan had at first
= 15 u
= 15 x 120
= 1800 mℓ
Answer(s): 1800 mℓ
