Answer:

Ben will drink 5\frac{1}{4} liters of tea in one hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben drinks 3\frac{1}{2} or \frac{7}{2} liters of tea in every \frac{2}{3} of an hour.

Here \frac{2}{3} of an hour can be represented in minutes as

\frac{2}{3}\times 60 minutes = 40 minutes.

Now we will apply unitary method to solve this question.

∵ Ben drinks amount of tea in 40 minutes = \frac{7}{2} liters

∴ Ben will drink tea in 1 minute = \frac{7}{2\times 40}

∴ Ben will drink the amount of tea in 60 minutes = \frac{7\times 60}{2\times 40}

                                                                                 = \frac{420}{80}

                                                                                 = \frac{21}{4} liters

                                                                                 = 5\frac{1}{4} liters

Therefore, in one hour Ben will drink 5\frac{1}{4} liters of tea.

Divide 3 1/2 by 2/3. 3 1/2 = 7/2 as an improper fraction, so we have 7/2 ÷ 2/3 = 7/2 * 3/2 = 21/4 = 5 1/4 L
