Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x[/tex] is the total volume of milk.

100% - 60% = 40%

40% is left in the glass.

40% of [tex]x[/tex]  = 80 ml

[tex]\frac{40}{100}[/tex] of [tex]x[/tex] = 80

[tex]x = 80[/tex] × [tex]\frac{100}{40}[/tex]

[tex]x = 200[/tex] ml

The volume of milk initially in the glass was 200 ml.

What is the percentage?

A percentage is a minimum number or ratio that is measured by a fraction of 100.

Let x be the total volume of milk.

100% - 60% = 40%

40% is left in the glass.

40% of x = 80 ml

40 / 100 × x = 80

0.4 × x = 80

x = 200

Thus, The volume of milk initially in the glass was 200 ml.
