Fill-in-the-blank Question
Carl filled 12 mugs with coffee. Each mug has 250 mL of coffee.
How many liters of coffee did Carl use in all?

Answer 1

Carl used 3 liters of coffee in all

Explanation:

Step 1: multiply 12 by 250 to determine how mL are in all the mugs of coffee which gets you 3000

Step 2 convert: There are 1000 milliliters (mL) in a liter, so to convert from milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000. So divide 3000 by 1000 to find how much liters Carl uses in all. Which gets you 3

Therefore, Carl used 3 liters of coffee in all

Answer 2

Carl used a total of 3 liters of coffee in all.

Explanation:

There are 1000 milliliters (mL) in a liter, so to convert from milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000.

To find the total amount of coffee used, you can multiply the number of mugs by the volume of each mug:

12 mugs x 250 mL/mug = 3000 mL

To convert this to liters, you divide by 1000:

3000 mL ÷ 1000 = 3 L

Therefore, Carl used 3 liters of coffee in all.
