Given:
2/3 liter of solution.
1/2 of the solution is used.

Find how much the solution is used for the experiment.

We simply multiply the 2 fractions.

2/3 liters * 1/2 = 2*1 / 3* 2 = 2/6
2/6 is simplified to 1/3
 
1/3 liter of solution was used in the experiment.

You just have to multiplied :)

\frac{1}{2} * \frac{2}{3}  = \frac{1*2}{2*3}
 =  \frac{2}{6}  =  \frac{1*2}{3*2}
 =  \frac{1}{3}

In short, the final answers : \frac{1}{3} and \frac{2}{6}
Both answers are equivalent to each other

Hope this helps !

A)2100 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given total vinegar is 3 1/2 liters and the used vinegar is  3/5 of the vinegar in the beaker:

#First calculate the amount of vinegar not poured in the beaker:

V_o=V_t-V_b\\\\=3\frac{1}{2}(1-\frac{2}{3})\\\\=1\frac{1}{6}

#Calculate amount of vinegar used in experiment:

V_b=\frac{2}{3}V_t=\frac{2}{3}(3\frac{1}{2})=2\frac{1}{3}\\\\V_u=\frac{3}{5}V_b=\frac{3}{5}\times 2\frac{1}{3}=1\frac{2}{5}

#The unused vinegar is therefore calculated by subtracting the used vinegar from the total at the start of the experiment:

V_r=V_t-V_u\\\\=3\frac{1}{2}-1\frac{2}5}\\\\=2\frac{1}{10}\times 1000\ ml\\\\=2100\ ml

Hence, the unused vinegar is 2100 ml
