Question

1. an experimental procedure calls for 46 milliliters (ml) of water to be used in a lab. how much water is this in quarts? 5. a child is told they are 48 inches (in) tall. how tall are they in meters (m)?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the conversion factor for inches to meters

1 inch = 0.0254 meters.

Step2: Set up the conversion

We have 48 inches, and to convert to meters, we multiply the number of inches by the conversion - factor. So, the height in meters $h = 48\times0.0254$.

Step3: Calculate the result

$h=48\times0.0254 = 1.2192$ meters.

Step1: Recall the conversion factor for milliliters to quarts

1 quart = 946.353 milliliters.

Step2: Set up the conversion

We have 46 milliliters. Let $q$ be the volume in quarts. Then $q=\frac{46}{946.353}$.

Step3: Calculate the result

$q=\frac{46}{946.353}\approx0.0486$ quarts.

Answer:

1.2192 meters
