Answer:

The drink cost $2

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer can be seen logically.

If a liter of the drink equals 10 deciliters, then:

2 L = 20 dL

And if a deciliter of the drink equals $ 0.10 then:

20dL * $ 0.10 = $ 2

It could be concluded that a drink containing 2L has a value of $ 2

Answer can also be found by rule of three:

1dL = 0.10

20dL = X

Clearing the X equals:

X = 20 $ dL ($ 0.10)

X = $ 2
