Question
Riya is filling water bottles for a picnic. She fills one 2Z bottle and four 500 ml bottles. Her friend, Aarav fills three 750 ml bottles. Who filled more water, Riya or Aarav? How much more?
Answer

Water filled in four 500 ml bottles is 4 × 500 ml = 2,000 ml = 21
Total amount of water filled by Riya =21+21=41
Water filled by Aarav = 3 × 750 ml = 2,250 ml
= 21 250 ml
41 > 21 250 ml
So, Riya filled more water.
Therefore, Riya filled 1l 750 ml more water than Aarav.
