Question

mathstudent55 · Answer

If 0.5L of juice has a mass of 503.5 g, what is the mass of 1.5L of juice (without the carton)?

anonymous · Answer

three times 0.5 L is 1.5 L 
so 1625.0-1510.5=114.5

amigatour · Answer

How do you know that the cartoon weighs 114.5? Did you weigh it?

anonymous · Answer

mass of 0.5L of juice is 503.5g x 3 = 1510.5
mass of 1.5L of juice is 1625.0g - 1510.5=114.5 
does that makes sense?

amigatour · Answer

Yes, it is, but it's a weird question. Can you show the formula you have used?
