Jerry made 8,700 mL of tomato soup. He packed 1.6 L of the soup for his kids' lunches. He then froze half of the remaining soup.How many milliliters of soup did Jerry freeze? Jerry froze ______mL of soup

7100 mL
Explanationto solve this we need to do a subtraction, note the unit must be the same, so
Step 1
convert 1.6 Liters into mL
to do this we need to use the equivalence:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1000\text{ mL= 1 L} \\ so \\ \frac{1000\text{ mL}}{1\text{ L}} \end{gathered}[/tex]so,
a) convert 1.6 Liters into mm
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1.6\text{ L*\lparen}\frac{1000\text{ mL}}{1\text{ L}}\text{\rparen=1600 mL} \\ 1600\text{ mL} \end{gathered}[/tex]Step 2
b)now, we can do the subtraction:
so
soup she froze = total soup made - soup she packed
so, replace
[tex]\begin{gathered} frozen\text{ soup=8700 mL -1600 mL} \\ frozen\text{ soup=7100 mL} \end{gathered}[/tex]therefore, the answer is
7100 mL
I hope this helps you
