Given:

Louisa needs 3 liters of lemonade and punch for a picnic she has 1800 milliliters of lemonade.

Determine how much punch does she need.

Solution:

In order to determine how much she needs, we must first convert 3 liters to ml by using the general conversion method.

1 l = 1000 ml

= (3 L )( 1000 mL/ 1L)

The unit L cancels 

= 3000 mL

Subtract 1800 to 3000.

= 3000 mL - 1800 mL
= 1200 mL

Final answer:

Louisa needs 1200 mL of lemonade.
