Let's solve each part of the worksheet step by step.
---
Problem 1: Bill and Sam poured equal amounts of water into this graduated cylinder.
Image Description:
There is a graduated cylinder with water up to the
50 mL mark. It says that Bill and Sam each poured an equal amount of water into the cylinder, so together they made 50 mL.
We need to find how much
each person added.
####
Solution:
Total volume = 50 mL
Since both poured equal amounts:
$$
\text{Each person's amount} = \frac{50}{2} = 25 \text{ mL}
$$
✔ Answer: Each added
25 mL.

Problem 2: Jennifer adds 37 mL of water to the graduated cylinder. What is the volume now?
Image Description:
The initial volume in the cylinder is
40 mL (as shown on the scale). Then Jennifer adds
37 mL.
We need to add these volumes.
####
Solution:
$$
40 \text{ mL} + 37 \text{ mL} = 77 \text{ mL}
$$
✔ Answer: The new volume is
77 mL.

Problem 3: Kelly has two graduated cylinders (A and B)
Image Description:
- Cylinder A: Water level at
40 mL
- Cylinder B: Water level at
20 mL
Kelly pours
12 mL from cylinder A into cylinder B.
We need to find:
1. Volume in cylinder A after pouring
2. Volume in cylinder B after pouring
####
Solution:
-
Cylinder A:
Original = 40 mL
After removing 12 mL:
$$
40 - 12 = 28 \text{ mL}
$$
-
Cylinder B:
Original = 20 mL
After adding 12 mL:
$$
20 + 12 = 32 \text{ mL}
$$
✔ Answers:
- Volume in cylinder A:
28 mL
- Volume in cylinder B:
32 mL

Problem 4: Jay has two graduated cylinders
Image Description:
- First cylinder: Water level at
60 mL
- Second cylinder: Water level at
30 mL
We are asked: What is the
combined volume?
####
Solution:
$$
60 \text{ mL} + 30 \text{ mL} = 90 \text{ mL}
$$
✔ Answer: Combined volume =
90 mL
---
✔ Final Answers Summary:
1.
Bill and Sam each added: 25 mL
2.
Jennifer’s cylinder now has: 77 mL
3.
After pouring:
- Cylinder A:
28 mL
- Cylinder B:
32 mL
4.
Combined volume in Jay’s cylinders: 90 mL
