Final answer:

Devon needs to prepare 37.5 liters of soup for 100 guests, by multiplying 375 milliliters per person by the number of guests and then converting the total milliliters to liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question at hand involves calculating the total amount of soup that Devon needs to prepare for a party with 100 guests. Given that she typically makes 375 milliliters (ml) of soup per person, we need to calculate the total volume in liters. To perform this calculation, we first need to multiply the amount of soup per person by the number of guests, and then convert milliliters into liters.

First, we calculate the total soup needed in milliliters (ml):

  • 375 ml/person × 100 persons = 37500 ml total

Next, we convert milliliters into liters:

  • 1000 ml = 1 liter
  • 37500 ml ÷ 1000 = 37.5 liters

Therefore, Devon will be making 37.5 liters of soup for the party with 100 guests.
