We have been given that Carter has a toy ire truck that sprays like the real thing! Carter's fire truck stores 6 liters of water inside its tank. All of the water in the tank is drained out in 3 minutes. We are asked to find the number of millimeters drained per minute.
First of all, we will convert 6 liters to milliliters.
1 liter = 1000 ml.
6 liters = 6*1000 ml = 6000 ml.
Now we will divide total milliliters by total time as:
Therefore, Carter's fire truck drain 2000 milliliters of water each minute.
You solve this by using PEMDAS. You solve the multiplication and division before addition and subtraction leaving you with 6 + 5 - 4. You then do addition/subtraction from left to right giving you 11-4. Ultimately your final answer will be 7.
