Answer:

The glass bottle can hold about 888 ml of water

Explanation:

Given

Size of glass bottle = 3.75 cups of water.

What is being asked in this question is to convert the size of the bottle from cups to millimetres

Having said this, it should be noted that

1 cup of water is equivalent to 236.59 millilitres.

i.e. 1 cup = 236.59 ml

If the above statement is true; we'll get the size of the 3.75 cups by multiplying both sides of the equation by 3.75

1 cup = 236.59 ml becomes

3.75 * 1 cup = 3.75 * 236.59 ml

3.75 cups = 887.2125 ml

So, 3.75 cups of water can hold 887.2125 ml of water

This means that the glass bottle can hold about 888 ml of water, when rounded up
