We know that 1 L =1000 mL, which we use to convert between the two units. The conversion fractions of interconverting are:
And
Since we want to end up with millimeters, the second conversion is used in converting L to mL as:
Thus, 3.2 L is equivalent to 3200 mL.

Q #2: 3(x-2)=12 Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is the correct answer?
A. 6
B. -2
C. -4
D. 2
Answer Explanation
: In order to solve for the value of x, we use the order of operations as follows:
The first step is to divide both sides by 3
Add 2 to both sides to eliminate it from the left-hand side of the equation
x-2+2=4+2
x = 6
Thus, the value of x is 6.

Q #3: 3(2x+5)=11x+5 Solve the equation above for x. Which of the following is correct?
A. 1
B. 2
C. -1
D. -2
Answer Explanation
We follow the order operations to solve for the unknown value of x.
3(2x+5)=11x+5
Open the bracket on the LHS by multiplying each term by 3
(3*2x)+(3*5)=11x+5
6x+15=11x+5
Subtract 15 from both sides
6x+15-15=11x+5-15
6x=11x-10
Subtract 11x on both sides
6x-11x=11x-11x-10
-5x=-10
Divide both sides by -5
-5x/-5=-10/-5
x= 2
Thus, the value of unknown value of x is 2.
