Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Convert the volume of one bottle from liters to milliliters.
  • Step 2: Multiply the volume of one bottle by the number of bottles.

Step 1: Each bottle holds 1.8 liters. Since 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters, we convert 1.8 liters to milliliters:

1.8 liters×1000milliliters/liter=1800milliliters 1.8 \text{ liters} \times 1000 \, \text{milliliters/liter} = 1800 \, \text{milliliters} .

Step 2: Calculate the total capacity for 3 bottles:

1800milliliters/bottle×3bottles=5400milliliters 1800 \, \text{milliliters/bottle} \times 3 \, \text{bottles} = 5400 \, \text{milliliters} .

Therefore, the total capacity of 3 bottles is 5400milliliters 5400 \, \text{milliliters} .

Answer

5400ml 5400ml
