Answer:

500 mL

Explanation:

We have the following information:

12 bottles = 6 liters

They ask us for the content of a single bottle, therefore what we do resolve equality, is as follows:

12 bottles = 6 liters

1 bottle = 6 liters ÷ 12

1 bottle = 0.5 liters

Answer: Each bottle contains 500 milliliters of iced tea

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to divide the total liters of iced tea (6) by the number of bottles (6).

Mathematically speaking

6 /12 = 0.5 liters

So, each bottle contains 0.5 liters of iced tea.

Since 1 liter = 1000 milliliters, weave to multiply the result by 1000 to convert to milliliters.

0.5 liters x 1000 milliliters = 500mililiters

Each bottle contains 500 milliliters of iced tea
