An ice cube is made of 5 fluid ounces of water. About how many milliliters of water does it take to make an ice cube

Answer 1

ANSWER:

147.868 mL of water is required to make an ice cube.

SOLUTION:

Given that, an ice cube is made up of 5 fluid ounces of water.

We need to find how many milli liters of water does it require to make an ice cube.

For, that we have to convert 5 fluid ounces in to units of milli liters.

We know that, 1 US fluid ounce equals to 29.5735 milli liters. i.e. 1 US fluid ounce = 29.5735 mL

Now,  

An ice cube is made by 5 fluid ounces = 5 x 1 fluid ounce

= 5 x 29.5735 mL  = 147.868 mL

Hence, 147.868 mL of water is required to make an ice cube.
