Question

Soft drinks are often sold in two-liter size bottles. How many 200 mL drinkscould be poured from one bottle this size?A. 2B. 10C. 100

Answer 1

Given:

a.) Soft drinks are often sold in two-liter size bottles.

Recall: 1 Liter (L) = 1000 Milliliter (mL)

We get,

Step 1: Convert 2 Liter into mL.

`\text{ 2 (L) x }\frac{\text{ 1000 mL}}{1\text{ (L)}}`
`=\text{ 2 x 1000 mL}`
`\text{ 2 L = 2,000 mL}`

Step 2: Divide 2,000 mL by 200 mL.

`\text{ No. of 200 mL drinks can be poured = }\frac{\text{ 2,000 (mL)}}{\text{ 200 (mL)}}\text{ = 10}`

Therefore, in a 2 Liter sized bottle, ten 200 mL drinks could be poured.

The answer is letter B.
