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 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 many gallons of a 10 percent ammonia solution should be mixed with 50 gallons of a 30 percent ammonia solution to make a 15 percent ammonia solution?
Let x represent the gallons of 10% ammonia solution. The total volume of the mixture is x + 50 gallons. The equation for the mixture is: 0.10x + 0.30(50) = 0.15(x + 50). Solving this equation gives x = 50 gallons of the 10% ammonia solution needed.
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 much of 10 percent acid Solution must be mixed with 35 percent acid solution mixed to get 12 Gallos of 20 percent solution?
x = 10% solution y = 35% solution .1x+.35y=.20*12 x+y=12 y=12-x .1x+.35(12-x)=.20*12 .1x+4.2-.35x=2.4 -.25x=-1.8 .25x=1.8 x=7.2 gallons y=4.8 gallons
How much water should be mixed with 2 gallons of a 50 percent acid solution in order to get an 2 percent acid solution?
To get a 2% acid solution, you need to dilute the 50% acid solution with water. Since the final volume is 2 gallons, you will need to mix 2 gallons of water with the 2 gallons of 50% acid solution to get a 2% acid solution.
