Question

Maria works in a local pharmacy and must prepare a stock of a drug solution for a local veterinarian. The pharmacy has in stock 3 Liters of the drug solution and the veterinarian is needing 2 quarts.

How many quarts would be remaining of the Liter after Maria makes the solution ?

Answer 1

Approximately 1.10729 quarts.

First, you convert 2 quarts into liters by multiplying by the U.S. customary unit 0.9463529460.

Subtract your product, 1.89270589, from the available 3 liters.

You get 1.0729411 quarts remaining.

If you were using imperial quarts, you would instead multiply 2 quarts by 1.13652 and continue along the steps.
