Final answer:
The total fluid intake of the client is 360 cc, the answer being C. For the catering scenario, Devon will be making 37.5 liters of soup for the party by multiplying the amount of soup per person by the number of guests and converting milliliters to liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the total fluid intake, add together the volumes of all the fluids consumed. The client consumed 180 cc of tea, 60 cc of soup, and 120 cc of ice cream. To find the total, simply add these amounts together:
- 180 cc (tea)
- 60 cc (soup)
- 120 cc (ice cream)
The total fluid intake is:
180 cc + 60 cc + 120 cc = 360 cc.
Therefore, the answer is C. 360 cc.
In a similar situation in the catering industry, Devon from the catering company will calculate food quantities based on the number of guests. For example, if she makes 375 milliliters of soup per person for 100 guests, the total volume of soup she'll need is:
375 milliliters/person × 100 persons = 37,500 milliliters.
To identify equivalent metric units of capacity, we convert milliliters to liters, knowing that 1 liter equals 1,000 milliliters. Thus, Devon will be making:
37,500 milliliters ÷ 1,000 milliliters/liter = 37.5 liters of soup.
