1 fluid ounce because 1000 is 10 times 100, so you multiply 0.1 by 10 to get 1.

We are given

The volume of 100 drops of a liquid is 0.1 fluid ounce

so,

100 drops of liquid = 0.1 fluid ounce

Firstly , we will find volume of 1 drop of a liquid

we can divide by 100 to get it

1 drops of liquid = (0.1/100) fluid ounce

now, we need to find volume of 1000 drops

so, we can multiply by 1000

and we get

Volume of 1000 drops of liquid is


=(0.1)/(100)*1000


=1 fluid ounce...................Answer
