If 3/4 of the mixture is vinegar , then volume of vinegar is 0.525 liters.
Order of Operations in Mathematics follow this following rule :
This rule is known as the PEMDAS method.
In working on a mathematical problem, we first calculate operation that is in parentheses, follow by exponentiation, then multiplication or division, and finally addition or subtraction.
Let us tackle the problem !
Given:
A container holds 0.7 liters of oil and vinegar
[tex]\texttt{Container Volume} = 0.7 ~ \texttt{liters}[/tex]
3/4 of the mixture is vinegar
[tex]\texttt{Volume of Vinegar} = \frac{3}{4} \times \texttt{Container Volume}[/tex]
[tex]\texttt{Volume of Vinegar} = \frac{3}{4} \times 0.7 ~ \texttt{liters}[/tex]
[tex]\texttt{Volume of Vinegar} = \frac{3 \times 0.7}{4} ~ \texttt{liters}[/tex]
[tex]\texttt{Volume of Vinegar} = \frac{2.1}{4} ~ \texttt{liters}[/tex]
[tex]\texttt{Volume of Vinegar} = \boxed {0.525 ~ \texttt{liters}}[/tex]
If 3/4 of the mixture is vinegar , then volume of vinegar is 0.525 liters.
