To find out how many liters of coffee Sameer drinks in the morning, we can start by converting cups to liters using the table provided.
According to the table:
- 1 cup = 0.237 liters
Since Sameer drinks 3 cups of coffee, we can calculate the total volume in liters as follows:
\[
\text{Total liters} = 3 \text{ cups} \times 0.237 \text{ liters per cup}
\]
Calculating that:
\[
\text{Total liters} = 3 \times 0.237 = 0.711 \text{ liters}
\]
Now, we will round this answer to the nearest tenth:
Rounded to the nearest tenth, 0.711 liters becomes 0.7 liters.
Therefore, Sameer drinks **0.7 liters** of coffee in the morning.
