One teaspoon equals 0.5 centiliters. How many liters equal 50 teaspoons? Round the answer to the nearest hundredth.

Question

0.25 liters
0.50 liters
25 liters
50 liters

Answer 1

To convert teaspoons to liters using the provided conversion (1 teaspoon = 0.5 centiliters), we first need to determine how many centiliters are in 50 teaspoons.

1. Calculate the centiliters in 50 teaspoons: \[ 50 \text{ teaspoons} \times 0.5 \text{ centiliters/teaspoon} = 25 \text{ centiliters} \]

2. Next, convert centiliters to liters: Since 1 liter = 100 centiliters, we can use the following conversion: \[ 25 \text{ centiliters} \times \frac{1 \text{ liter}}{100 \text{ centiliters}} = 0.25 \text{ liters} \]

Thus, 50 teaspoons equal 0.25 liters. Rounding to the nearest hundredth, the final answer is:

\[ \boxed{0.25 \text{ liters}} \]
