Final answer:
To provide enough soda for 60 guests with each drinking 10 fl. oz, you will need at least 18 liters of soda after converting fluid ounces to milliliters and then to liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
To calculate the total amount of soda required for 60 guests, where each guest drinks 10 fl. oz of soda, we must first convert the fluid ounces to liters. There are approximately 29.5735 milliliters in a fluid ounce, so we can convert 10 fl. oz to milliliters:
10 fl. oz × 29.5735 mL/fl. oz = 295.735 mL
Next, we need to calculate the total volume for all 60 guests:
295.735 mL × 60 guests = 17,744.1 mL
Since 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters, we can convert milliliters to liters:
17,744.1 mL ÷ 1000 = 17.7441 L
Round up to ensure you have enough soda, it is appropriate to provide at least 18 liters of soda for the party, as it's advisable to have a little extra to accommodate any guest who may want more.
