(a)
Pot : Container : Bottle
1 : 4 : 8
(b)
Percentage of water that a pot can hold as compared to a container
=
14 x 100%
= 25%
(c)
Volume of 1 container
= 4 x 7
= 28 ℓ
Volume of 4 containers
= 4 x 28
= 112 ℓ
(d)
Volume of 1 bottle
= 2 x 28
= 56 ℓ
Volume of 2 bottles
= 2 x 56
= 112 ℓ
Answer(s): (a) 1 : 4 : 8; (b) 25%; (c) 112 ℓ; (d) 112 ℓ
