1000 ml. filled at the start
\n" ); document.write( "Leak 5 ml. per second for 2 minutes;
\n" ); document.write( "or leak 5 ml. per second for 120 seconds.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1000-120%2A5=400\" ml. still in the container.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The fraction remaining compared to at the start:
\n" ); document.write( "\"400%2F1000=4%2F10=highlight%282%2F5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
