Answer:

  0.33 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

If a mug can hold a volume of m litres, then a bowl can hold a volume of m+0.07 litres. The total volume held by the given containers is ...

  3(m +0.07) +4m = 2.52

  7m +0.21 = 2.52 . . . . . . . . simplify

  7m = 2.31 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.21

  m = 0.33 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

Each mug can hold 0.33 litres.
