Let's solve each problem step by step based on the image you provided. The goal is to
calculate the capacity of each smaller container given that the total capacity of a larger container is equal to the combined capacity of several smaller ones.

1)
- A
1-liter jug = 4 identical cups
- We know:
$ 1 \text{ L} = 1000 \text{ mL} $
- So, total capacity of 4 cups = 1000 mL
- Capacity of each cup = $ \frac{1000}{4} = 250 \text{ mL} $
✔ Answer: 250 mL

2)
- A
150 mL juice box = 3 identical bottles
- Total capacity of 3 bottles = 150 mL
- Capacity of each bottle = $ \frac{150}{3} = 50 \text{ mL} $
✔ Answer: 50 mL

3)
- A
1-liter pot = 4 identical pitchers
- $ 1 \text{ L} = 1000 \text{ mL} $
- Total capacity of 4 pitchers = 1000 mL
- Capacity of each pitcher = $ \frac{1000}{4} = 250 \text{ mL} $
- But the answer is asked in
liters, so:
$ 250 \text{ mL} = 0.25 \text{ L} $
✔ Answer: 0.25 L

4)
- A
3-liter watering can = 6 identical bottles
- $ 3 \text{ L} = 3000 \text{ mL} $
- Total capacity of 6 bottles = 3000 mL
- Capacity of each bottle = $ \frac{3000}{6} = 500 \text{ mL} $
✔ Answer: 500 mL
---
5)
- A
75 mL cup = 3 identical small bottles
- Total capacity of 3 bottles = 75 mL
- Capacity of each bottle = $ \frac{75}{3} = 25 \text{ mL} $
✔ Answer: 25 mL
---
✔ Final Answers:
1)
250 mL
2)
50 mL
3)
0.25 L
4)
500 mL
5)
25 mL
