Question

Tony purchases 12 water bottles. Of those bottles, 5 hold 400 milliliter each and 7 hold 1.5 liters each. How much water, in milliliter AND liters, does Tony purchase

Answer 1

1 : 12500 ML, 12.5 L

Explanation:

The first thing we want to do is times 5 times 400 = 2000 and 7 times 1.5L = 10.5 to convert L to mL we get 10500 add those together and we get 12500 ML converted we get 12.5 L!

Answer 2

12 L 500 mL

Explanation:

First, multiply the two types of bottles separately.

5 × 400 = 2000 mL

7 × 1.5 = 10.5 L

You can convert the volume of the first from milliliters to liters. There are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. In the second volume, you can convert the decimal to milliters.

2000 mL = 2 L

0.5 L = 500 mL

Add all of the numbers together.

10 L + 2 L + 500 mL = 12 L 500 mL

Tony purchased 12 L and 500 mL of water.
