Question

there is 1 litre of tea in a teapot, alex pours 275ml of the tea into a cup what percentage of the tea has alex poured

Answer 1

27.5%

Explanation:

Given:

• 1 Liter In Teapot
• Alex poured 275 milliliters of the tea into a cup

Review:

• 1,000 Milliliters = 1 Liter

Concepts:

• A liter is a noun meaning a unit of capacity redefined in 1964 by a reduction of 28 parts in a million to be exactly equal to one cubic decimeter. It is equivalent to 1.0567 U.S. liquid quarts and is equal to the volume of 1 kilogram of distilled water at 4°C.

• A millimeter is a noun meaning a unit of capacity equal to one thousandth of a liter, and equivalent to 0.033815 fluid ounce, or 0.061025 cubic inch.

Formula:

• The mℓ to ℓ formula is [L] = [mL] / 1000.

Now we must convert 275 milliliters to liters.

1. Divide the volume by 1,000.

275 ÷ 1000 = 0.275

2. Add the Unit Symbol for Liter.

0.275 ⇒ 0.275 L

Now we have to find how much of 1 liter- 0.275 liters as a percentage is.

To convert 0.275 to percent multiply 0.275 by 100. The result is 27.5 percent, or, using the percent sign, 27.5 %.
