Answer 2

Answer:

0.75 cup = 0.1763 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question:

Using the conversion factors given in question

We are converting

0.75 cup to liters

Step 1

Convert cups to pint

1 cup = 0.5 pints

0.75 cup = x pints

x = 0.75 × 0.5 pints

x = 0.375 pints

Step 2

Convert pints to Quart

1 pints = 0.5 quart

0.375 pint = x quart

Cross Multiply

x quart = 0.375 × 0.5 quart

x quart = 0.1875 quart

Step 3

Convert from quart

1 quart = 0.94 liter

0.1875 quart = x liter

Cross Multiply

x liter = 0.1875 × 0.94 liter

x liter = 0.17625 liters

Approximately to 4 significant figures= 0.75 cup = 0.1763 liters
