Question
A tea bag can brew 170ml of tea. If a carton has 24 bags of tea in it, ______________ liters of tea can be brewed.
- 2.45
- 3.36
- 1.26
- 4.08
Hint:
We are given the quantity that a tea bag brews 170ml of tea. There are 24 total tea bags. We are asked the quantity of how much tea 24 bags brew in liters. For this question, we will find the total quantity of tea brewed by 24 bags in the given unit. And then we will convert the given quantity into required units.
The correct answer is: 4.08
The quantity of tea brewed by a single bag is 170ml.
Total number of tea bags is 24.
We can find the total quantity of tea brewed by multiplying the tea brewed by single bag and number of total bags.
Total quantity = number of bags × quantity brewed by single bag
= 24 × 170 ml
= 4080 ml
We are asked to find the total quantity into liters. So, to convert the total quantity into liters, we have to find the relation between milliliters and liters.
1 milliliters = 0.001 liters
To convert 4080 milliliters to liters, we will multiply the quantity by 0.001.
4080 ml = 4080 × 0.001 liters
= 4.08 liters.
So, the amount of tea brewed in liters is 4.08.
For such questions, we should be know about the conversion of units.
