You need 1 1/3 quarts of pure antifreeze.
Approx 1.86 gallons.
60% solution contains 6/10 x 30 ie 18 litres 18 + A = 3/4 (30 + A) 72 + 4A = 90 + 3A 4A - 3A = 90 - 72 A = 18 ie add another 18 litres, giving 36 litres out of 48 which is the required 75%.
add 25ml more of solution x * 20 = 100 * 25 x = 25
This is an algebra problem. There will be 2 equations and 2 unknowns. Let x = amount of 7% solution, and y = amount of 19% solution. .07x + .19y = .15*456. x + y = 456; or x = 456-y which will substitute into the first equation. .07(456-y) +.19y = .15*456. 31.92-.07y+.19y = 68.4. .12y = 36.48. y = 304L (amount of 19% solution to add). x = 456-y. x = 456 - 304. x = 152L (amount of 7% solution to add).
UM 6a? Can you be a little more specific maybe? But 6a plus a is 7a
To find out how many quarts of pure antifreeze must be added to 6 quarts of a 10% antifreeze solution to obtain a 20% solution, we can set up the equation. The initial amount of antifreeze in the solution is (0.10 \times 6 = 0.6) quarts. Let (x) be the amount of pure antifreeze to add. The final solution will be (6 + x) quarts, and we need the total antifreeze to equal (0.20(6 + x)). Setting up the equation (0.6 + x = 0.20(6 + x)) and solving gives (x = 1.2) quarts. Thus, 1.2 quarts of pure antifreeze must be added.
4.2 quarts
The original solution has 3.6 quarts of antifreeze in it. The equation then becomes (3.6 + x)/(12 + x) = 0.40, where x is the amount of antifreeze added. X is then equal to 2.
If my math is correct it would take an additional ( .6 of a U.S. quart of antifreeze ) to increase a 30 % antifreeze volume to 40 % if the total volume of the mixture is 6 quarts
0.6 of a pint.
2 gallons.
Approx 1.86 gallons.
0.25 gallons of water (or 1 quart)
To create a 45% antifreeze solution from 1 gallon (128 ounces) of pure antifreeze, you need to determine how much of the solution should consist of antifreeze. Since you want 45% antifreeze, you can set up the equation: 0.45 * (128 + x) = 128, where x is the amount of water added. Solving for x, you find that you need to add approximately 104 ounces of water to achieve a 45% antifreeze solution.
I'd go buy a bottle of pre-mixed antifreeze, and just fill it up with that. Less hassle, works great.
4 gallons Let x be the amount of antifreeze needed to be added. We know that the total amount of antifreeze in the new solution must equal the amount of antifreeze in the old solution + x: .40*(x+12)=x+.20*12 .60x=2.40 x=4 gallons
In the original solution, you have 5 quarts total, 20% antifreeze. So 20% * 5 = 1. You have 4 qt water and 1 qt antifreeze. You will add an amount A, to this mixture. When you add, the new total volume (in quarts) is 5 + A, and the percentage is:(1 + A)/(5 + A) x 100%. So when you start out at A = zero, you have 1/5 x 100% = 20%.So set up the equation (1 + A)/(5 + A) * 100 = 30, and solve for A.Multiply both sides by (5+A) and isolate the term A. Note that since you are adding, the value of A will never be negative (so you don't have to worry about the denominator (5+A) being zero.Answer = 5/7 (quarts) = 0.714285714285155 quarts.
