Answer 1

To convert milliliters to liters, you can use the conversion ratio that 1 liter equals 1,000 milliliters.

To convert 3,500 milliliters to liters, you divide the number of milliliters by 1,000:

$$3,500,\text{milliliters}÷1,000=3.5,\text{liters}$$

Therefore, 3,500 milliliters of milk is equivalent to 3.5 liters.
