Rob has a 2 liter bottle of iced tea. He plans to pour the iced tea into 250-milliliter containers. How many containers can he fill?

if you have 2 liters = 2000 milliliters, so you take the value of the milliliters and divide by the # that can fit in the containers:

2000/250= 8

There are 1000mL in one L
2L of iced tea is the same as 2000mL
If each container is 250mL we have to divide it among them

2000/250 = 8

We can fill 8 containers
