Question

Stefania pours 2 liters of orange juice and 1.5 liters of pineapple juice into a punch bowl. How many kiloliters are in the punch bowl? Use the metric table to help answer the question.

Answer 1

first add 2 liters + 1.5 liters to get the total volume in liters

from there, using a metric table, we can see that the prefix kilo- means 1000, so a kiloliter is 1000* a liter

so simply multiply your volume in liters by 1000 to get kiloliters
