Answer:
1/2 liter
Explanation:
the plot shows the number of beakers that can hold the amount of liquid stated.
there are 2 beakers that hold 1/8 liters, 7 beakers that hold 1/4 liters, and 3 beakers that hold 1/2 liters.
you can multiply for the total amount of liters:
2(1/8) + 7(1/4) + 3(1/2)
= 2/8 + 7/4 + 3/2
= 1/4 + 7/4 + 6/4 (make the denominator same for all fractions so you can add)
= 14/4
= 7/2
= 3 1/2 (simplified)
total container holds 4 liters, so subtract:
4 - 3 1/2 = 1/2 liters
