Answer:
5 small containers will be required and used.
This water is used to fill four and half small containers exactly.
4.5 small containers
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangular container has dimensions 12*12*45 cm and the small container has dimensions 6*5*8 cm
The rectangular container with a square base is 2/3 full of water.The height is used up to 45*2/3= 7.5 cm
The volume of the water in the rectangular container with a square base is
12*12*7.5= 1080 cm³
The volume of the water in the smaller container is
6*5*8= 240 cm³
Number of smaller containers required = Volume of large container / Volume of smaller container
Number of smaller containers required =1080 cm³/240 cm³= 4.5
This water is used to fill four and half small containers exactly.
