If you mean, LITERS, then use an abbreviation that cannot be misunderstood, like either L or the word, "liters".

Make a formula to use starting if possible, with all symbols, because you will compute twice - you want a range of values for how much of the 30% acid to use.

T, the target resulting value from 15% to 18% acid
v, how much of the 30% acid to use
You could choose to use only those as the variables.


Solve for v.








What is v for T=15?
What is v for T=18?
Those are the boundaries for v.
