To determine if Victoria will have at least 3 liters of water when she fills both of her pitchers, let's follow these steps:
1. Identify the capacities of the two pitchers:
- The first pitcher can hold 1,750 mL.
- The second pitcher can hold 1,500 mL.
2. Calculate the total volume of water in milliliters:
- Add the capacities of both pitchers to find the total volume of water:
[tex]\( 1,750 \, \text{mL} + 1,500 \, \text{mL} = 3,250 \, \text{mL} \)[/tex]
3. Convert the total volume from milliliters to liters:
- Knowing that 1 liter is equivalent to 1,000 milliliters, we use the conversion factor:
[tex]\[ \text{Total volume in liters} = \frac{3,250 \, \text{mL}}{1,000 \, \text{mL per liter}} = 3.25 \, \text{L} \][/tex]
4. Compare the total volume in liters to the required 3 liters:
- Victoria has a total of 3.25 liters of water.
Since 3.25 liters is greater than 3 liters, we can conclude that Victoria will indeed have at least 3 liters of water when both pitchers are filled.
Therefore, the answer is Yes, Victoria will have at least 3 liters of water when she fills both of her pitchers.
