At first, a pot contained
35 ℓ of water. Nora added another
13 ℓ of water into the pot. Then she used
214 of all the water in the pot. How much water did Nora use? Express your answer as a fraction in its simplest form.
Total volume of water in the pot after Nora added more water into the pot
= 35 + 13
= 915 + 515
= 1415 ℓ
14 u = 1415
1 u = 1415 ÷ 14 = 1415 x 114 = 115
Volume of water that Nora used
= 2 u
= 2 x 115
= 215 ℓ
Answer(s): 215 ℓ
