Jennifer made 5 L of punch. Her brother made another 750 mL. If they combine the two batches how many 180 mL servings would they have? Would there be leftovers? If so how much?

1 L = 1000 mL

5 × 1000 = 5000

Jennifer made 5000 mL of punch.

5000 + 750 = 5750
Together they made 5750 mL of punch.

5750 ÷ 180 = 31.944....

180 × 31 = 5580
5750 - 5580 = 170

They would have 31, 180 mL servings.
Yes there would be left overs.
There would be 170 mL left.
