Question

1. one liter is equal to 1,000 milliliters. how many liters are equal to 57 milliliters?

a. 57,000
b. 5.7
c. 0.57
d. 0.057

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the conversion factor

We know that \( 1 \text{ liter} = 1000 \text{ milliliters} \), so to convert milliliters to liters, we use the formula \( \text{liters} = \frac{\text{milliliters}}{1000} \).

Step2: Substitute the value

We need to convert 57 milliliters to liters. Substitute 57 for milliliters in the formula: \( \text{liters} = \frac{57}{1000} \).

Step3: Perform the division

\( \frac{57}{1000} = 0.057 \).

Answer:

D. 0.057
