Answer:

1.33 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of any shape is given by cross sectional area multiplied by height. Therefore, V=Ah

Where A is area and h is height

Since their cross sections are the same, then volume depends on height.

If 12cm equals 2 liters

8cm equals x

X=(2*8)/12=1.3333333333333 liters

Approximayely, the smaller pail has capacity of 1.33 liters
