1L = 4.226753 cups

 

4L = 16.907012 cups

 

So

 

28 - 16.907012  = 11.092988  more cups  = 11 more cups   [ rounded ]

We use: 1 Liter=4.227 cups, so 4 liters X 4.227 cups per liter=16.908 cups.

Since she estimates that 28 cups will be drunk, then 28 - 17(rounded)=11 extra cups that she may have to buy, or about 2.5 liters of cola.
