The end product of a chemical process is 0.2 % of the volume of the raw material. To produce 3L of end product how many cubic metres of raw material is required?
-----
volume of end product = 0.002(volume of initial input)
-------------------------------
Let "x" be the initial volume of cubic metres needed::
Equation::
x = 0.002*3L
x = 0.006L
