The metric unit of a quantity is simply the unit of measurement of the quantity
The volumes of the crashed tomato cans are 1184 milliliters and 1.184 liters
The volume of the crushed tomato can is given as:
[tex]\mathbf{Volume = 40oz}[/tex]
From the question, we have the following conversion ratio
[tex]\mathbf{1oz \approx 29.6mL}[/tex]
So, the volume in milliliters becomes
[tex]\mathbf{Volume = 40 \times 29.6mL}[/tex]
Multiply
[tex]\mathbf{Volume = 1184mL}[/tex]
To convert the unit to liters, we simply divide the volume by 1000.
So, we have:
[tex]\mathbf{Volume = 1184L \div 1000}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{Volume = 1.184L}[/tex]
Hence, the equivalent volumes are 1184 milliliters and 1.184 liters
