Zorluk: KolayMetric System Conversions

A pharmacist is filling 55 identical prescriptions for a liquid medication. If each prescription requires 120120 milliliters of the medication, how many liters of medication are dispensed in total?

Cevap: 0.6 Liters

Cevap

0.6 Liters
To find the total amount of medication, first multiply the 55 prescriptions by the 120120 milliliters needed for each, which equals 600600 milliliters. Because the question asks for the answer in liters, and there are 10001000 milliliters in 11 liter, divide the 600600 milliliters by 10001000. This gives the final answer of 0.60.6 liters.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total required volume in milliliters.
600600 mL
Since there are 55 prescriptions and each needs 120120 milliliters, multiplying them gives the total amount of medication in the initial unit.
2
Convert the total volume from milliliters to liters.
0.60.6 Liters
The prefix 'milli-' means one-thousandth. To convert from a smaller unit (milliliters) to a larger base unit (liters), divide by 10001000.
