Question

A scientist now has exactly 4.365 liters of water in a container. There were 5 liters of water in the container, but some of the water evaporated.How much water evaporated from the container?

Answer 1

Finding the difference, subtract:

5 - 4.365
0.635 liters

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

amount evaporated = 0.635 liters

Explanation:

The scientist initially had 5 liters of water in a container . After evaporation took place he had only 4.365 liters of water remaining in the container.

The amount of water that evaporated can be computed when you remove the amount of water remaining after evaporation from the initial amount before evaporation.

Mathematically,

amount evaporated = initial amount before evaporation - amount remaining after evaporation

initial amount before evaporation = 5 liters

amount remaining after evaporation = 4.365 liters

amount evaporated = 5 - 4.365

amount evaporated = 0.635 liters
