To determine how many quarts [tex]\( 2.5 \times 10^4 \)[/tex] milliliters ([tex]\(mL\)[/tex]) is, follow these step-by-step conversions:
### Step 1: Convert milliliters ([tex]\(mL\)[/tex]) to liters ([tex]\(L\)[/tex])
We know that:
[tex]\[ 1 \text{ liter (L)} = 1,000 \text{ milliliters (mL)} \][/tex]
Given:
[tex]\[ 2.5 \times 10^4 \text{ mL} \][/tex]
To convert [tex]\( 2.5 \times 10^4 \)[/tex] mL to liters, divide by 1,000:
[tex]\[
L = \frac{2.5 \times 10^4 \text{ mL}}{1000}
\][/tex]
Simplifying:
[tex]\[
L = \frac{25000 \text{ mL}}{1000}
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
L = 25.0 \text{ L}
\][/tex]
### Step 2: Convert liters ([tex]\(L\)[/tex]) to quarts
We know:
[tex]\[ 1 \text{ L} = 1.06 \text{ quarts} \][/tex]
Given:
[tex]\[ 25.0 \text{ L} \][/tex]
To convert 25.0 liters to quarts, multiply by 1.06:
[tex]\[
\text{quarts} = 25.0 \text{ L} \times 1.06 \text{ quarts/L}
\][/tex]
Simplifying:
[tex]\[
\text{quarts} = 26.5 \text{ quarts}
\][/tex]
### Step 3: Round the answer to 1 decimal place
The value of quarts already calculated is:
[tex]\[ 26.5 \text{ quarts} \][/tex]
There is no further rounding needed as it is already at 1 decimal place.
### Conclusion
Therefore, [tex]\( 2.5 \times 10^4 \)[/tex] milliliters is:
[tex]\[ 26.5 \text{ quarts} \][/tex] when rounded to 1 decimal place.
