Question

A container holds 15,000 milliliters (mL) of water. How many liters is this?

1,000 mL = 1 L

5 L

10 L

15 L

50 L

Answer 1

To find the number of liters, we need to divide the number of milliliters by 1,000 since 1,000 mL = 1 L.

15,000 mL ÷ 1,000 = 15 L

Therefore, the container holds 15 liters of water.
