Question

A carton of milk contains 1.89 liters. To the nearest whole number, how many 220-milliliter servings are in the container?

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 8 220-mililiter servings in the container, with 130 mililiters left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mililiter unit of measure refers to 1/1000 liters. So 220 milliliters is actually 0.22 liters. Therefore, to determine the number of 220 milliliter servings that can fit in 1.89 liters, the following division must be performed:

1.89 / 0.22 = X

8.59 = X

Therefore, 8 servings of 220 milliliters (1,760 ml) could be served, with 130 milliliters left over.
