Andy and Christopher are measuring a liquid solution using graduated cylinders, Andy uses 3.5 liters of the liquid solution, and Christopher uses 2,580 milliliters of the liquid solution. What is the ratio of Christopher's measurements to Andy's measurements in milliliters? One liter equals 1,000 millilters. Simplify your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent

- Andy with A

- Christopher with C

Required

Determine the ratio of C to A

Ratio is represented as thus:

Rewrite as fraction

This gives

Convert L to mL

--- Approximated

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:
