A vessel has 4 litres and 500 ml of curd. In how many glasses, each of 25 ml capacity, can it be filled?

Capacity of vessel = 4 l 500ml


1 l = 1000 ml


4 l 500 ml = 4500 ml


Capacity of a glass = 25 ml


Number of glasses required to fill the vessel = 4500÷25



So,


180 glasses needed to fill the vessel.
