67.5

Answer 1

To convert milliliters to liters, you can use the conversion ratio provided: 1 liter = 1,000 milliliters.

To determine how many liters are in 6,750 milliliters, you can set up the following calculation:

\[
\text{Liters} = \frac{\text{milliliters}}{1,000}
\]

Now substitute 6,750 milliliters into the equation:

\[
\text{Liters} = \frac{6,750}{1,000} = 6.75
\]

So, the cylinder holds **6.75 liters**. The correct answer is:

**6.75**.
