Answer:

  • Yes, 200 ml of fluid can be transferred to a 1-quart container.

Step-by-step explanation:

You must compare the two volumes, 200 ml and 1 quart. If 200 ml is less than or equal to 1 quart, then 200 ml of fluid can be transferred to a 1-quart container, else it is not possible.

To compare, the two volumes must be on the same system of units.

Quarts is a measure of volume equivalent to 1/4 of gallon.

One gallon is approximately 3.785 liters.

3.785 liter = 3.785 liter × 1,000 ml/liter

Then, to convert 1 quart to ml use the unit cancellation method:

  • (1/4)gallon × 3.785 liter/gallon × 1,000ml / liter = 946.25 ml

Thus, you get that a 1-quart container has volume of 946.25 ml, which allows that 200ml of fluid be transferred to it.
