This question is solved using rounding and proportion concepts.
- Using this, we find that: the lower bound for the number of glasses of water which can be filled from the bottle is 100.
A drinking glass holds 0.3 litres correct to the nearest 0.1 litres
This means that, with 2 decimal places, the drinking glass holds between 0.25 litres and 0.34 litres.
-------------------------------------
Calculate the lower bound for the number of glasses of water which can be filled from the bottle
For the lower bound, we consider that 1 glass holds 0.25 litres, and want to find how many glasses are needed for 25 litres. So
1 glass - 0.25 litres
x glasses - 25 litres
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]0.25x = 25[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{25}{0.25} = 100[/tex]
Thus, the lower bound for the number of glasses of water which can be filled from the bottle is 100.
