joe drank 4 liters of water on monday and 4 deciliters of water on tuesday.how much more water did he drank on monday than on tuesday
4 deciliters = 0.4 liters. 4 liters = 40 so what day did he drink more?
Monday -- 4 liters
Tuesday -- 0.4 liters
4.0 - 0.4 = 3.6 liters
How did you get 3.6
To find out how much more water Joe drank on Monday compared to Tuesday, we need to convert the units to a common one. In this case, we can convert deciliters (dL) to liters (L) because they are both measures of volume.
First, we need to convert 4 deciliters (dL) to liters (L). Since there are 10 deciliters in a liter, we divide 4 dL by 10 to get the equivalent in liters:
4 dL รท 10 = 0.4 L
So on Tuesday, Joe drank 0.4 liters of water.
Now, to calculate how much more water Joe drank on Monday, we subtract the amount he drank on Tuesday from the amount he drank on Monday:
4 L - 0.4 L = 3.6 L
Therefore, Joe drank 3.6 liters more water on Monday than on Tuesday.
