Worksheet

Leaving the unit off and finishing with a bare figure stands out. Nothing in the answer says whether L or dL was added. In Word Problems, only one of the two quantities, the starting one or the one poured in, gets written into the equation.

Third lesson, and the crossing from restating units to calculating with them. In Addition (Different Units) one quantity comes written in a pair of units such as L and dL, while the other may carry a single one.
