A large cubical container of side 60 cm was filled with fruit juice up to 30% of its capacity. After 5 full jugs of fruit juice were removed from it, the level of fruit juice in the container dropped by 14 cm. The remaining fruit juice was then drained out through a tap found at the bottom of the container at a rate of 3 litres per min.
  1. How much fruit juice can each jug hold? Express your answer in mℓ.
  2. How long would it take to completely drain the fruit juice from the container through the tap? Express your answer in min. (1 ℓ = 1000 cm3)
