If you have the equation, you can solve this easily

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

What did you get for part A?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Look if your trying to get 75% of a liter, then it must go to the smaller unit (milliliters) 1000 ml=l

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

75% of a liter is 750 milliliters or .75 liters present of apple juice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Harry has a jar that contains 75% of apple juice and the rest water. The bottle has 1 liter of water. 75% of the liter is apple juice. so your answer is 0.75 of a liter or 750 milliiters

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

you know there is 75% apple juice, they want to know how many liters of apple juice are in the jar.. it literally tells you it's 75%
