Question

How many 2.00-L bottles could be filled from a 24-can case of cola if in the United States a typical can holds 355 mL?

Answer 1

The number of 2.00-L bottles could be filled from a 24-can case of cola if in the United States a typical can holds 355 mL can be solved by: 34 (355 mL) = 12070 mL 12070 ml( 1 L / 1000 mL ) = 12.07 L Number of 2 -L bottles it can fill = 12.07 L / 2 L = 6 bottles

Answer 2

The number of bottles which could be filled are:

Approx 4 bottles ( since we got 4.260 )

Explanation:

One can case of cola holds- 355 mL

This means that:

24 can case of cola will hold= 24×355 mL

= 8520 mL

Also, 1 L=1000 mL

This means that:

1 mL= 0.001 L

Hence,

8520 mL= 8.520 L

Total amount of cola is: 8.520 L

Now, the number of bottles of 2 L which could be filled from this liquid is:

8.520/2=4.260 bottles.
