How much pure acid should be mixed with 6 gallons of a 50 percent acid solution in order to get an 80 percent acid solution?
50% acid in a 6 gallon solution means that 3 gallons are acid. 9 gallons more acid will give you a total of 12 gallons of acid in a 15 gallon solution. 12 is 80% of 15.

How many gallons of a 80 percent acid solution must be mixed with 60 gallons of a 16 percent solution to obtain a solution that is 60 percent?
Let x be the gallons of the 80% acid solution needed. The amount of acid in the 80% solution is 0.8x, and the amount in the 16% solution is 0.16*60=9.6. We want a total of (x+60) gallons of solution with 60% acid, so we have the equation 0.8x + 9.6 = 0.6(x+60). Solving for x gives x = 24 gallons.

How many gallons of a 12 percent indicator solution must be mixed with a 20 percent indicator solution to get 10 gallons of a 14 percent solution?
Let x represent the amount of 12% solution and (10-x) represent the amount of 20% solution. The equation to solve is: 0.12x + 0.20(10-x) = 0.14(10). Solving for x gives x = 4, so you need 4 gallons of the 12% solution and 6 gallons of the 20% solution to make 10 gallons of the 14% solution.

How much pure acid should be mixed with 6 gallons of a 50 percent acid solution in order to get an 80 percent acid solution?
50% acid in a 6 gallon solution means that 3 gallons are acid. 9 gallons more acid will give you a total of 12 gallons of acid in a 15 gallon solution. 12 is 80% of 15.
