Question

How many liters of plasma are present in 8.5 pints?

Answer 1

Answer:

there are 4.0205 Litres of plasma in 8.5 pints

Explanation:

Recall that:

1 quart qt = 2 pints pt  and 1 quart = 946 mL

∴ two pints will contain 946 mL

and one pint will be = 946 mL/2

=  473 mL

Similarly, 8.5 pints will contain 473 mL × 8.5 = 4020.5  mL

We know that :

1000 mL = 1 Litres

Hence 4020.5 mL = (4020.5 /1000)L

= 4.0205 Litres

Therefore, there are 4.0205 Litres of plasma in 8.5 pints
