Final answer:

Mike poured out 0.4 liters of juice from the 2-liter bottle when he served his guests, which means that there are still 1.6 liters of juice left in the bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student asked how much juice is still left in the bottle after Mike poured 1/5 of the juice from a 2 L bottle. To answer this, you must first calculate the amount of juice that was poured out. Since the bottle initially contains 2 liters, 1/5 of 2 liters is 2 L × (1/5) = 0.4 L. Therefore, Mike poured out 0.4 liters of juice. To find out how much juice is left in the bottle, subtract the amount poured out from the total amount:

2 L - 0.4 L = 1.6 liters

So, after serving, there are 1.6 liters of juice still left in the bottle.
