    Liters of vinegar is 0.525 liters or 21/40

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Container holds 0.7 liters

    We are looking for the liters of vinegar

    We use cross-multiplication

    a/b=c/d

    ?/3/4 = 0,7/1

    ?=0,7 x (3/4) / 1

    ? = 0.525 liters

    To get the fraction

    we use the fraction in liters that is 7/10

    7/10 x 3/4

    For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

    7*3/10*4=21/40

    This fraction cannot be reduced.
