To find out how many liters of hot chocolate the coffee shop sold each hour, we can divide the total amount of hot chocolate sold by the number of hours.
Total amount of hot chocolate sold = 28 liters
Number of hours = 4
To find how many liters of hot chocolate were sold each hour, we divide the total amount sold by the number of hours:
28 liters รท 4 hours = 7 liters
Therefore, the coffee shop sold 7 liters of hot chocolate each hour.
