1) How many ml?
✔ Answer: 700 ml
Explanation:
The measuring jug shows markings at 200ml, 400ml, 600ml, 800ml, and 1000ml. The liquid level is exactly halfway between 600ml and 800ml →
700 ml.

2) How many ml?
✔ Answer: 400 ml
Explanation:
The liquid level aligns perfectly with the
400ml mark.
---
3) How many ml?
✔ Answer: 300 ml
Explanation:
Between 200ml and 400ml, there are no smaller marks shown — but since the scale goes up in hundreds, and the liquid is halfway between 200ml and 400ml, it’s
300 ml.
