Question

A bottle holds

5
55 milliliters of perfume.
How many bottles can we fill with
2
22 milliliters of perfume?

Answer 1

0.4 bottles can be filled

Answer 2

0.4 bottles can be filled

Explanation:

divide the amount that is present by the max amount

the bottle can only hold 5.55 millimeters; therefore the max amount would be 5.55 millimeters.

the amount that is present is 2.22 millimeters.

`(222 millimeters)/(555 millimeters) = 0.4`

0.4 bottles

if the given values are 555 and 222 then the answer is still .4
