Answer:

Mei can use to heat all the soup a smallest pot of volume greater than 2.4 litre.

Explanation:

Mei has 8 jars of soup containing soup in each = 300 ml.

Quantity of total soup = 300 × 8 = 2400 ml

1000 ml. = 1 litre

2400 ml. = 2400 ÷ 1000 = 2.4 litre

So Mei can use to heat all soup a smallest pot of volume greater than 2.4 litre.

Hello!

1 litre = 1,000 ml

8 jars * 300 ml = 2,400 ml

The smallest pot Mei can use to heat all the soup is about 3 litres.
