Answer:
451 milliliters equals 15.25 fluid ounces
Explanation:
The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. That is, what is intended with it is to find the fourth term of a proportion knowing the other three.
To solve a direct rule of three, the following formula must be followed:
a ⇒ b
c ⇒ x
So: [tex]x=\frac{c*b}{a}[/tex]
The direct rule of three is the rule applied in this case where there is a change of units.
In this case, the rule of three can be applied in the following way: if there are 29.57 milliliters in 1 fluid ounce, in 451 milliliters how many fluid ounces are there?
[tex]fluid ounces=\frac{451 mL*1 fluid ounce}{29.57 mL}[/tex]
fluid ounces= 15.25
451 milliliters equals 15.25 fluid ounces
