Given
Maria is making 2 liters of cherry lemonade,
5 deciliters of lime lemonade,
And 2500 milliliters of strawberry lemonade for a party.
After the party was over, she still had a total of 1.3 liters of lemonade left.
To find: How many liters of lemonade were consumed during the party.
Explanation:
It is gievn that,
The total amount of drinks prepared for the party is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} Total\text{ amount of drinks}=2l+5dl+2500ml \\ \lbrack\because1dl=0.1l,1ml=0.001l\rbrack \\ =2l+5\times0.1l+2500\times0.001l \\ =2+0.5+2.5 \\ =5l \end{gathered}[/tex]
Then, the amount of drinks consumed during the party is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} Amount\text{ of drinks consumed during the party} \\ =Total\text{ amount of drinks}-Amount\text{ of drinks left} \\ =5l-1.3l \\ =3.7l \end{gathered}[/tex]
Final result: Hence, the amount of drinks consumed during the party is 3.7 litres.
