Given :

Fran drank 19/20 liter of juice.

1 L = 1.06 qt.

To Find :

How many quarts of juice did she drink.

Solution :

It is given that :


1 \ L=1.06\ qt\\\\1=(1.06\ qt)/(L)

Now, amount of water he drink :


(19)/(20)* 1 \ L\\\\(19)/(20)* 1.06\ (qt)/(L)* L\\\\(19)/(20)* 1.6 \ qt\\\\1.52\ qt

Hence, this is the required solution.
