Question

It is recommended that an adult drink 64 fluid ounces of water everyday Josie has already consumed 700 mL of water how many more liters should he drink today

Answer 1

1.2 litres more water should Josie drink.

Explanation:

As given

It is recommended that an adult drink 64 fluid ounces of water everyday .

As given

1 ounce = 0.0296 litre .

Now convert 64 ounces into litre.

64 ounce = 64 × 0.0296

= 1.9 litres (Approx)

As

1 litre = 1000 ml

`1\ ml= (1)/(1000)\ litre`

Now convert 700 ml into litre.

`700\ ml= (700)/(1000)\ litre`

`700\ ml= (7)/(10)\ litre`

700 ml = 0 .7 litre

Thus

Recommended amount of water a adult should drink = Amount of water Josie already consumed + More water should Josie drink.

Putting the value

1.9 litres = 0 .7 litres + More water should Josie drink.

More water should Josie drink = 1.9 - 0.7

More water should Josie drink = 1.2 litres .

Therefore 1.2 litres more water should Josie drink.
