Answer:The correct answer is C. 3 liters.

Explanation:

To determine the total amount of liquid in the pot, we need to add the volume of the broth and the volume of the water.

The broth has a volume of 500 milliliters, and the water has a volume of 1,500 milliliters. Adding these together, we get:

500 mL + 1,500 mL = 2,000 mL

Since there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter, we can convert the volume to liters:

2,000 mL ÷ 1,000 = 2 liters

Therefore, the total amount of liquid in the pot is 2 liters.
