To find out how many milliliters of alcohol are in the solution, we need to calculate 70% of 500 milliliters.
Step 1: Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100.
70% = 70/100 = 0.7
Step 2: Multiply the decimal by the total number of milliliters in the solution.
0.7 * 500 = 350
Therefore, there are 350 milliliters of alcohol in the solution.
