Answer 2

Answer:

7 bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

Christie needs to buy at least 45 fluid ounces of milk at the store.

33.8 fluid ounces=1 Liter

1 fluid ounce = $\dfrac{1}{33.8}$ Liters

45 fluid ounces = $\dfrac{1}{33.8} \times 45 =1.3313 Liters$

Now:

1 Liter =1000 Milliliter

Therefore:

1.3313 Liter= 1000 X 1.3313 Milliliters

1.3313 Liter= 1331.3 Milliliter

Therefore, the smallest number of 200 milliliter bottles Christie must buy is:

$=\dfrac{1331.3}{200}=6.7 \\\approx 7 bottles$
