When you serve 10 Milliliters per each glass, 489 glasses are served with 10 Milliliters of Punch and a glass with 3.
When you serve 1 per each, it can be bloated to 4893.

When you try to fill 250 Milliliters into 250 Milliliter glass, some of it will spills out by the way.

Answer:

19.6 to the nearest tenth.

Explanation:

We must determine the total volume of punch made to know how many 250-mL glasses of punch can be served. Given that the punch was made out of 3 liters of lemon-lime soda and adds 1,893 milliliters of cranberry juice,

Total volume of punch available

= 3L + 1893 mL

Since 1000 mL = 1 L

3 L = 3000 mL

Total volume of punch available

= 3000 + 1893

= 4893 mL

Number of 250-mL glasses of punch can be served

= 4893/250

= 19.572

≈ 19.6 to the nearest tenth.
