Ella has three pitchers that each hold 1.5 liters of lemonade. She charges $0.38 for every 100 milliliters of lemonade.

How much will Ella make if she sells all of the lemonade in the pitchers?

Let her earning be x
The volume of 1 pitcher in millilitres = 1.5 x 1000 = 1500 ml [1 liter is 1000 milliliter]
3 pitchers = 1500 x 3 = 4500 ml
100 ml = 0.38 rs.
4500 ml = 0.38 x 4500= 1690 rs.

Answer:
$17.10
Explanation:
theres 1000 millileters in a liter so .38 x 10 = 3.8
500 more millileters so .38 x 5 = 1.9
3.8+1.9=5.7
5.7 for one pitcher so multiply 5.7 by 3 = 17.1
