Answer:

The estimate is enough because; 1. The amount needed for the party 5/5 liter is not exact (about 5.5 liters) 2/ 2/73 + 2.7 = 5.53 liters, 5.53 liters is approximately 5.5 liters

Explanation:

Present poises = 2.73 liters The estimated need = 2.8 liters Estimated + amount posses = 2.8 f2.73 = 5.54 The total amount (5.53 liter) is also about 5.5 liter, i.e, 5.53 liter is approximately 5.5 liters
