Question

You have a bottle with a volume of 2 litres. You pour 500 mL of water into it. How much more water can the bottle hold?

Show answer Hide answer
Answer
The bottle can hold 1500 mL (1.5 litres) more.

Explanation

Space left
=
\( 2000\ \text{mL} - 500\ \text{mL} = 1500\ \text{mL} \)
  • 2 litres = 2000 mL.
  • 500 mL is already poured in.
  • So 2000 − 500 = 1500 mL more can be added.
2000 mL minus 500 mL leaves 1500 mL, so the bottle can hold 1.5 litres more.
