ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION OF CAPACITy
Addition of Capacity
To add the capacity of two or more containers in litres or millilitres, we simply add
the numbers and write down the unit.
Example 1: Add the following.
(a) 63 L + 68 L (b) 486 L + 158 L (c) 178 mL + 556 mL
Solution: (a) 1 1 (b) 1 1 (c) 1 1
6 3 L 4 8 6 L 1 7 8 mL
+ 6 8 L + 1 5 8 L + 5 5 6 mL
1 3 1 L 6 4 4 L 7 3 4 mL
Subtraction of Capacity
To subtract the capacity of two containers, we simply subtract the smaller numbers
from the bigger number and write down the unit.
Example 2: Subtract the following.
(a) 90 L – 55 L (b) 732 mL – 367 mL
Solution: (a) 8 10 (b) 6 12 12
9 0 L 7 3 2 mL
– 5 5 L – 3 6 7 mL
3 5 L 3 6 5 mL
