Given the statement:
Joe drank 4 liters of water on Monday and 4 deciliters of water on Tuesday.
Determine how much more water did he drink on Monday than on Tuesday.
Solution:
In order to determine the answer, we must convert first the measurement of water in deciliters to liters using the general conversion method, and then we need to subtract.
1 liter = 10 deciliter
= ( 4 dL)(1 L/ 10dL)
= 4L/10
= 0.4 L
= 4 L- 0.4 L
= 3.6 L
Final answer:
Joe drink 3.6 liters of water on Monday than on Tuesday.
