a jug of milk hold 4 quarts. How many liters of milk does the jug hold? round your answer to the nearest 100th of a liter
to do this problem you'll have to look up the conversion factor (or factors) between lilters and quarts. You could do this by opening a new browser tab and typing in 1 liter = ? quarts. try it. or, type in 1 quart = ? liter. The jug will hold 4 quarts. using a conversion factor, convert that to liters, to answer this question.

You see, each helper looked for the appropriate conversion factor.
?
My point is simple: You need to understand conversion factors and how to find them when y ou need them.
so lets say 4*1.06 = 4.24 BUT it says ABOUT!! so 4.24 wouldnt be my actual answer right?
Do an Internet search for "4 quarts = ? liters" now, please. To answer your question: I ask you whether or not the question asks for a certain number of decimal place accuracy. If not, and y ou're satisfied with "about," then 1 decimal point accuracy would suffice.
a liter is more than a quart, so 4 liters would not fit in the jug. Try again.
ok your kinda sounding rude! you told me to search up 4 quarts = liters AND I ALREADY DID THAT BEFORE YOU TOLD ME!!
Convert 4 quarts to liters. The answer will be less than 4 liters.
less than 4 liters?
Calm down. I'm glad you could do that without prompting.
Yes, because 1 liter is greater in volume than 1 quart.
sorry
would my answer be 3.77?
idk
i just asked that cause that is one of my answer choices
Let's see. I'd search for " ? liters = 4 quarts" and see what the cat would bring in.
i searched liters = 4 quarts and this is what it gave me
Great! Choose the answer CLOSEST to what you found on the 'Net. 3.77 liters strikes me as being too low, but if it's closest to 3.785, choose it.
alright i am clicking the finish button already!! :D I will tell you if that answer was right or wrong
YES!!! YES YES YES!!! It was right!!!!
remember, we are rounding off a bit, so it's dicey to expect "right" or "wrong" in this klind of situation. Again, you chose the answer closest to the conversion factor 4 qts = 3.785 liters.
Happy you are happy.
thx! and have a good night
