Answer 2

Need in Factor method

Answer 3

We're starting with this:\[\large\rm \color{orangered}{1000mL}\]
Let's first go from milliliters to liters! :)
\[\large\rm \frac{1L}{1000mL}\]One liter is 1000mL.
We'll multiply to apply conversion,\[\large\rm \color{orangered}{1000mL}\cdot\frac{1L}{1000mL}\]Do you understand how the units will cancel out?

Answer 4

This only gets us half way though.
We would then go from Liters to kiloLiters :)

Answer 5

sorry it was a typo i meant 1,000mL = __L

Answer 6

Oh lol, that makes things easier I suppose :3

Answer 7

Recall that you can rewrite any quantity over 1.
Anything divided by 1 is itself.

\[\large\rm \frac{\color{orangered}{1000mL}}{1}\]The reason we do this is,
when we go to the next step, with the multiplication,
it makes it easier to cross cancel units.
