Problema 61a

Capitolo 2, Problema 61a

Use metric conversion factors to solve each of the following problems:
b. A cooler has a volume of 5000 mL. What is the capacity of the cooler in liters?

Guida verificata passo dopo passo

Identify the relationship between milliliters (mL) and liters (L). The metric conversion factor is 1 L = 1000 mL.

Set up the conversion equation using the given volume of the cooler (5000 mL) and the conversion factor. The equation will be: \( \text{Volume in liters} = \frac{\text{Volume in milliliters}}{1000} \).

Substitute the given value (5000 mL) into the equation: \( \text{Volume in liters} = \frac{5000}{1000} \).

Perform the division to simplify the expression, which will give the volume in liters.

Verify the result to ensure the units are correctly converted and the calculation aligns with the metric system.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Metric System

The metric system is a decimal-based system of measurement used globally, which includes units such as meters for length, grams for mass, and liters for volume. It is designed to be simple and consistent, making conversions straightforward by using powers of ten.

Volume Conversion

Volume conversion involves changing a measurement from one unit of volume to another, such as from milliliters (mL) to liters (L). In the metric system, 1 liter is equivalent to 1000 milliliters, so to convert mL to L, one must divide the number of milliliters by 1000.
