Question 14

The total fluid amount is 180 ml.

To find the total fluid amount, we first calculate the volume of liquid in each container. The 200 ml cup, being 3/4 full, contains 150 ml, and the 120 ml glass, being 1/4 full, contains 30 ml. Adding these amounts together gives a total of 180 ml.

A) 140 ml

This option is incorrect because it underestimates the total fluid amount. The calculations show that the cup contains 150 ml and the glass contains 30 ml, which totals 180 ml, not 140 ml.

B) 180 ml

This option is correct. The calculations indicate that the 200 ml cup holds 150 ml when 3/4 full, and the 120 ml glass holds 30 ml when 1/4 full, leading to a total of 150 ml + 30 ml = 180 ml.

C) 240 ml

This option is incorrect as it overestimates the total fluid amount. The sum of the cup's 150 ml and the glass's 30 ml equals only 180 ml, which is significantly less than 240 ml.

D) 320 ml

This option is also incorrect because it greatly exceeds the actual total fluid amount. The combined volume of the cup and the glass is only 180 ml, not 320 ml.

Conclusion

The correct total fluid amount of 180 ml is derived from accurately calculating the contents of both containers. All other options fail to reflect the correct summation of the individual volumes, either underestimating or overestimating the total fluid present. Thus, option B stands as the definitive correct answer.
