Question

Azul needs to buy enough juice for 20 people . Each person will drink 175 milliliters of juice. How many liters of juice should Azul buy?

Answer 1

3.5 liters

Explanation:

If each person drinks 175 milliliters of juice we must convert mililiters to liters to determine how many liters 20 people will drink.

The amount of mililiters that 20 people will drink is:

`=20*175=3500`

Therefore 20 people will drink 3500 mililiters of juice.

The conversion factor from 1 mililiter to 1 L is 0.001:

Therefore for 20 people in liters:

`=3500*0.001=3.5`

Answer 2

175 * 20 = 3500 milliliters

1 liter = 1000 milliliters

3500 / 1000 = 3.5 liters
