Answer: There is 625 millilitres of mixture in each jar.

Explanation:

Given: Ice tea = 2 liters

Lemonade=
1(3)/(4) litter

Therefore,

Total mixture = Ice tea+ Lemonade


\text {Total mixture} = 2+1(3)/(4) = 2+(7)/(4) =(8+7)/(4) =(15)/(4)

Number of jars = 6

Mixture in one jar =
\frac{\text {Total mixture}}{\text {Number of jars}} = ((15)/(4) )/(6) =(15)/(4)* (1)/(6) = (5)/(8)

Mixture in one jar =
(5)/(8) liter

1 liter = 1000 ml


(5)/(8) liter=
(5)/(8) * 1000 = 625 ml

Hence, there is 625 millilitres of mixture in each jar.
