Question

Giselle had 2 liters of water. She drank 750 milliliters. How many milliliters of water does Giselle have left?

Answer 1

Answer: C. 1,250

First, we will convert Giselle's water from liters to milliliters using the conversion that was given to us:

$\begin{gathered} 1\text{ liter }=1000\text{ milliliters} \\ 2\text{ liters }\times\frac{1000\text{ milliliters}}{1\text{ liter}}=2000\text{ milliliters} \end{gathered}$

We will then subtract the amount of water she drank:

$2000-750=1250$

Giselle has 1,250 milliliters of water left.
