In this activity, we will be finding out how much liquid is in a measuring cylinder.

You need to know that 1,000 millilitres (ml) makes 1 litre (l).

The green liquid reaches the first mark out of 10 marks.

There is 100 ml of green liquid here.

Each mark is worth 100 ml.

Example

Read the scale and remember that each mark is worth 100 millilitres.

Answer

The liquid reaches the 6th mark.

I mark is 100 ml

So, there is 600 ml of yellow liquid in the container.
