A scientist wants to measure out 0.62 liters of a liquid, but she can only find a beaker that measures volume in centiliters. How many centiliters should she measure to equal 0.62liter?
To convert liters to centiliters, you can use the conversion factor that 1 liter is equal to 100 centiliters.
Therefore, to find out how many centiliters are in 0.62 liters:
0.62 liters * 100 centiliters/liter = 62 centiliters
The scientist should measure out 62 centiliters to equal 0.62 liters of the liquid.
