We want to complete the given conversion using an equivalent rate.
800mL &= L
First, let's identify the conversion rate between milliliters (mL) and liters (L).
1 000mL=1L
This means that the conversion factor between milliliters and liters can be expressed by the following fraction.
1 000mL/1L
Now, we want convert 800 milliliters to liters. To do this, we can divide both terms of the factor by 1.25 to write an equivalent rate. Let's do this!
1000mL Ă· 1.25/1L Ă· 1.25 &= 800mL/L
Next, let's perform the quotient. The quotient of 1 liter and 1.25 is 0.8 liters.
1000mL Ă· 1.25/1L Ă· 1.25 &= 800mL/0.8L
We found that 800 milliliters are equal to 0.8 liters.
800mL &= 0.8L
