Q:

Someone please help! My homework is due tomorrow! William bought a 0.5-liter bottle of liquid plant food. He uses 40 milliliters a week. What measurements are given? Are the same units used for each measurement? Explain. Also, explain how you can convert one of the measurements so that both use the same unit. How much plant food does William need for 12 weeks, explain. Is one bottle enough for 12 weeks. Give a clear answer.​

A:
Answer:0.5 Liters 40 Milliliters No, because milliliters and liters are different units of measurement.480mlYes, because the liquid plant food that William bought has a total of 500ml Step-by-step explanation:The measurements that are given are:0.5 Liters 40 Milliliters No, because milliliters and liters are different units of measurement. We can convert the liters to millilliters by using the formula mL = L/0.0010000 mL = 0.5/0.001000 mL = 500ml To find how much plant food William needs for 12 weeks, we simply multiply the amount of plant food per week by 12. 12 x 40ml = 480ml Yes, because the liquid plant food that William bought has a total of 500ml 500ml - 480ml = 20ml William will still have an excess of 20ml.
