x=gallons of 25%

y=gallons of 3.5%

.25x + .035y = .125(50)

y=50-x

using substitution for a system of equations:

.25x + .035(50-x) = 6.25

.25x + 1.75 - .035x = 6.25

.215x = 4.5

x=20.93 gallons of cream

y=29.07 gallons of milk

How many gallons of 30 percent antifreeze should be mixed with 10 percent gallons of 93 percent antifreeze to obtain a 65 percent antifreeze mixture?

Suppose there are G gallons of the 30% mix. Then G gallons of 30% contain 0.3*G gallons of the active ingredient. Also 10% gallons = 0.1 gallons of 93% contain 0.093 gallons of the active ingredient. Therefore, the total volume is G+0.1 gallons which contains 0.3*G + 0.093 gallons of the active ingredient. So its strength is (0.3*G + 0.393)/(G+0.1) which is 65% or 0.65 Thus 0.3*G + 0.093 = 0.65*G + 0.065 So that 0.028 = 0.35G Or G = 0.08 gallons

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 each of 25 percent alcohol and 35 percent alcohol should be mixed to obtain 20 gallons of 32 percent alcohol?

The question is best solved using basic algebra. You need 20 gallons of 32% alcohol. This will contain 0.32*20 = 6.4 gallons of pure alcohol. Now suppose you have X gallons of 25% alcohol in the mixture. That contains 0.25X gallons of pure alcohol. Also, since you have 20 gallons in total, you must have 20-X gallons of the 35% alcohol. This will contain 0.35*(20-X) = 7 - 0.35X gallons of pure alcohol. Then, the total amount of pure alcohol is 0.25X + 7 - 0.35X = 7 - 0.1X gallons. So you have 7 - 0.1X = 6.4 or 0.6 = 0.1X or X = 6. So the answer is 6 gallons of 25% alcohol and 14 gallons of the stronger stuff!
