Answer: 3 liters 520 milliliters

Explanation:

Total liquid amount:

80 ml + 240 ml = 320 milliliters

Total amount for 11 cakes:

320 milliliters × 11 = 3,520 milliliters

Total amount for 11 cakes conversion:

3,520 milliliters ÷ 1,000 = 3 remainder 520 = 3 liters 520 milliliters

liters of yogurt needed to make 11 cakes
2640 ml/1000--------> 2.64 lt
