(a)
Container : Tank : Bottle
1 : 4 : 8
(b)
Percentage of water that a container can hold as compared to a tank
=
14 x 100%
= 25%
(c)
Volume of 1 tank
= 4 x 5
= 20 ℓ
Volume of 4 tanks
= 4 x 20
= 80 ℓ
(d)
Volume of 1 bottle
= 2 x 20
= 40 ℓ
Volume of 2 bottles
= 2 x 40
= 80 ℓ
Answer(s): (a) 1 : 4 : 8; (b) 25%; (c) 80 ℓ; (d) 80 ℓ
