Answer :

Final answer:

a. First, 18 L converts to 180 dL using the conversion factor 1 L = 10 dL.

b. Second, 11 cm converts to 110 mm using the conversion factor 1 cm = 10 mm.

Explanation:

To perform the conversions you asked about, we need to use the concepts of dimensional analysis and conversion factors. Conversion factors are ratios of two equivalent quantities expressed in different units, which we use to convert between those units.

For the first conversion, 18 L to dL (deciliters), we need the conversion factor 1 L = 10 dL. Therefore, we multiply 18 by 10 to get 180 dL.

For the second conversion, 11 cm to mm (millimeters), we need the conversion factor 1 cm = 10 mm.

Therefore, we multiply 11 by 10 to get 110 mm.
