Part "3" of this question is incomplete

Step-by-step explanation:

1) It should be noted that 10 deciliter equals 1 liter, thus if James has 30 deciliters, he will require ? liters of milk in total

10 ⇒ 1

30 ⇒ ?

? = 30/10

? = 3 liters

James will require 3 liters of milk in total. So, since he has 1 liter at home, he will need to buy 2 liters (2 +1 = 3) more

2) Eric's plane flew 6 meters ⇔ 600 centimeters (since 1 meter equals 100 centimeters)

Paul's plane flew for 68 centimeters

From the above, it can be deduced that Eric's plane flew the longest distance and also flew farther by 532 centimeters (600 - 68 = 532)
