Answer 1

250

Explanation:

other answer messed up pretty bad.

.25x500, because 25%.

Then subtract that answer from 500, will give you 375.

From there, you have to find TWO THIRDS of 375, to find whats left after she drank the 1/3.

=250

Answer 2

Explanation:

25\100*500=125

1/3*125=41.66

41.66 millilites is left in the bottle
