Question

Kelly divided of 5/7 a liter of plant fertilizer evenly among some smaller bottles. She put 1/5 of a liter into each bottle. How many smaller bottles did Kelly fill? Pls help

Answer 1

3 bottles

Explanation:

Given that :

Total liters of fertilizer = 5/7 litres

Amount put into each smaller bottle = 1/5 liters

Number of small bottles filled :

Total liters of fertilizer ÷ amount put into smaller bottles

5/7 litres ÷ 1/5 litres

5 /7 * 5 /1

= 25 / 7

= 3.57

Hence, 3 bootles was filled
