25. A bucket can hold 3L. How many milliliters can the bucket hold?
Answer: B
A bucket can hold 3000 milliliters.
A bucket that can hold 3 liters is equivalent to 3000 milliliters, since 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters. Therefore, multiplying 3 liters by 1000 gives the total capacity in milliliters.
A) 300ml
This option is incorrect because 300 milliliters is significantly less than 3 liters. To convert liters to milliliters, one must multiply by 1000, which means 3 liters would be 3000 milliliters, not 300.
B) 3000ml
This option is correct as it accurately represents the conversion of 3 liters to milliliters. Since 1 liter equals 1000 milliliters, 3 liters equals 3000 milliliters.
C) 0.003ml
This option is incorrect because 0.003 milliliters is an extremely small volume, far less than 1 milliliter. It does not reflect the correct conversion of liters to milliliters, which would yield a much larger number.
D) 30ml
This option is also incorrect as 30 milliliters is much smaller than the capacity of a 3-liter bucket. Again, the correct conversion is to multiply by 1000, resulting in 3000 milliliters.
Conclusion
The correct answer, 3000 milliliters, accurately reflects the conversion of 3 liters into milliliters. All other options fail to represent the correct volume, either by underestimating or miscalculating the conversion, thus confirming that B is the only valid choice.
