Question

A group of students brought a pail of water to clean the classrom.
A pail could hold 4 litres of water.
How much water could 8 pails hold?

Answer 1

If one pail can hold 4 litres of water, then 8 pails can hold:

\[
8 \text{ pails} \times 4 \text{ litres/pail} = 32 \text{ litres}
\]

So, 8 pails could hold 32 litres of water.
