Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter D

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

V = 12.5 L

Rule of three

1000 ml ---------------- 1 l

x ---------------- 12.5 l

x = 12.5 x 1000/1 = 12500 ml

a) 1/125 L * 1 L/1,000 mL this option is not correct

b) 12.5 mL * 1 L/1,000 mL this option is not correct

c) 1/12.5 L * 1,000 mL/ 1 L this option is not correct

d) 12.5 L * 1,000 mL/ 1L this is the correct option
