Final answer:

The conversion of 7.5 kiloliters to liters is 7,500 L. Therefore, 7.5 kL is equal to 7,500 L, so the correct comparison is 7.5 kL = 7,500 L.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking whether 7.5 kL is greater than, less than, or equal to 7,500 L. To solve this, we need to understand the relationship between kiloliters (kL) and liters (L). Since 1 kL is equal to 1,000 L, we can convert 7.5 kL to liters by multiplying it by 1,000.

Converting 7.5 kL to liters:

  • 7.5 kL × 1,000 = 7,500 L

Now we can easily compare both measurements, which are now in the same units:

7.5 kL is equal to 7,500 L

Therefore, we use the equal sign (=) for our comparison:

7.5 kL = 7,500 L
