Julie had some juice. Each day, she drank an equal amount of juice. At the end of the fifth day, she had 1300 mℓ of juice left. At the end of the sixth day, she had 1100 mℓ of juice left.
- What was the amount of juice she drank each day?
- How much juice did Julie have at first? Give your answer in litres and millilitres.
(a)
Volume of juice that Julie drank each day
= 1300 - 1100
= 200 mℓ
(b)
Volume of juice that Julie had at first
= 1300 + 200 x 5
= 1300 + 1000
= 2300 mℓ
1000 mℓ = 1 ℓ
2300 mℓ = 2 ℓ 300 mℓ
Volume of juice that Julie had at first = 2 ℓ 300 mℓ
Answer(s): (a) 200 mℓ; (b) 2 ℓ 300 mℓ
