Why do you think Chintu does not take the challenge? Do you think you can take the challenge?

Correct Answer

Reason Chintu does not take the challenge: The bigger glass holds more juice than the smaller glass.

Drinking 6 bigger glasses would mean drinking much more juice than 6 smaller glasses.

A person might be able to drink 6 small glasses of juice but would struggle to drink 6 large glasses as it would be too much liquid.

Key Concept: Containers of different sizes hold different amounts of liquid.
