Just imagine how much milk that is! Find out in how many days your family would use 200 L milk. How much milk would the baby blue whale drink in eight months?
Answer:
Number of litres of milk a baby blue whale drinks in one day = 200 Number of litres of milk used in my family in one day = 2 So, the number of days for consuming 200 L of milk by my family = 200/2 = 100 days Now, We know 1 month = 30 days then, 8 months = 30 x 8 = 240 days So, the number of litres of milk the baby blue whale will drink in eight months = 200 x 2402.
