Beryl enjoys her coffee with two cartons of milk, but will her cup overflow? The coffee machine dispenses 130 milliliters of coffee, while her cups can hold up to 175 milliliters. Each milk carton contains 21 milliliters. Given the measurements are accurate to three significant figures, we need to analyze the maximum combined volume of coffee and milk to determine if Beryl’s cup can hold everything without spilling. Show your working clearly to support your conclusion.
