Solution
The correct option is D 86,990 mL
The quantity of water = 86 L and 990 mL
We cannot directly add quantities with different units of measurement. The quantities need to be converted to the same unit of measurement.
- 1 L=1,000 mL
- To get the quantity in mL, multiply 86 L with 1,000(as 1 L=1,000 mL).
- 86×1,000=86,000 mL.
- Thus, there are 86,000 mL in 86 L.
- Total quantity in mL=86,000 mL+990 mL=86,990 mL.
Hence, the quantity of water is 86,990 mL.
