Answer:

There are 0.0035 kiloliters in the punch bowl

Explanation:

Stefania pours 2 liters of orange juice and 1.5 liters of pineapple juice into a punch bowl.

⇒ Quantity of the orange juice poured into the punch bowl = 2 liters

⇒ Quantity of the pineapple juice poured into the punch bowl = 1.5 liters

Total quantity of juices that are poured into the punch bowl = 2 + 1.5

= 3.5 liters

So, Total number of liters that are in the punch bowl = 3.5 liters

Now, we need to find how many kiloliters are in the punch bowl.

1 kiloliters = 1000 liters

⇒ 3.5 liters = 0.0035 kiloliters

Hence, There are 0.0035 kiloliters in the punch bowl
