Shawna says her mug holds 100 milliliters.
Shelly says that the mug holds 1 liter.
Is Shelly correct?
A.
No, a capacity of 1 liter is too much for a mug.
B.
No, there are 10 milliliters in 1 liter.
C.
Yes, 1 liter is small enough for the capacity of a mug.
D.
Yes, there are 100 milliliters in 1 liter.
A. No, a capacity of 1 liter is too much for a mug.
D. Yes, there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter.
To determine if Shelly is correct, we need to understand the relationship between milliliters and liters.
A liter is a unit of measurement for volume, and it is equal to 1000 milliliters. Therefore, if Shelly claims that the mug holds 1 liter, we can convert this to milliliters by multiplying the number of liters by 1000.
1 liter * 1000 milliliters/liter = 1000 milliliters
Comparing Shelly's claim of 1000 milliliters to Shawna's claim of 100 milliliters, we can conclude that Shelly is incorrect. The mug cannot hold 1 liter, as this is too much for a mug. Therefore, the correct answer is:
A. No, a capacity of 1 liter is too much for a mug.
