Let's solve the
"Measures of Volume" worksheet step by step.
We are asked to determine:
- The
volume of liquid in each jug (how much liquid is currently in it).
- The
capacity of each jug (the total amount it can hold, which is the maximum marked on the scale).
All jugs have markings in
milliliters (mL). We'll read the volume based on the liquid level and the capacity based on the highest marking on the jug.
---
🔹 Top Left Jug (Blue Liquid)
-
Scale: Marked from 0 to 100 mL in increments of 20 mL.
-
Liquid Level: At the
40 mL mark.
-
Capacity: Highest marking is
100 mL.
✔ Volume = 40 mL
✔ Capacity = 100 mL
---
🔹 Top Right Jug (Red Liquid)
-
Scale: Marked from 0 to 500 mL in increments of 100 mL.
-
Liquid Level: At the
300 mL mark.
-
Capacity: Highest marking is
500 mL.
✔ Volume = 300 mL
✔ Capacity = 500 mL
---
🔹 Middle Left Jug (Green Liquid)
-
Scale: Marked from 0 to 500 mL in increments of 100 mL.
-
Liquid Level: At the
200 mL mark.
-
Capacity: Highest marking is
500 mL.
✔ Volume = 200 mL
✔ Capacity = 500 mL
---
🔹 Middle Right Jug (Yellow Liquid)
-
Scale: Marked from 0 to 500 mL in increments of 100 mL.
-
Liquid Level: At the
400 mL mark.
-
Capacity: Highest marking is
500 mL.
✔ Volume = 400 mL
✔ Capacity = 500 mL
---
🔹 Bottom Left Jug (Purple Liquid)
-
Scale: Marked from 0 to 200 mL in increments of 40 mL.
-
Liquid Level: At the
80 mL mark.
-
Capacity: Highest marking is
200 mL.
✔ Volume = 80 mL
✔ Capacity = 200 mL
---
🔹 Bottom Right Jug (Teal/Green Liquid)
-
Scale: Marked from 0 to 200 mL in increments of 40 mL.
-
Liquid Level: At the
60 mL mark.
-
Capacity: Highest marking is
200 mL.
✔ Volume = 60 mL
✔ Capacity = 200 mL
---
✔ Final Answers:
| Jug | Volume | Capacity |
|-----|--------|----------|
| Top Left | 40 mL | 100 mL |
| Top Right | 300 mL | 500 mL |
| Middle Left | 200 mL | 500 mL |
| Middle Right | 400 mL | 500 mL |
| Bottom Left | 80 mL | 200 mL |
| Bottom Right | 60 mL | 200 mL |

📝 Explanation:
-
Volume is how much liquid is
currently in the jug, read at the top of the liquid surface.
-
Capacity is the
maximum amount the jug can hold, indicated by the highest marking on the scale.
- Always check the scale increments and units (mL) carefully.
