~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The expression for the concentration of the solution after adding x mL of water is

concentration = . percents.

1. There is no need to say "pure water" in the condition. Chemists never use "dirty water".

2. What I wrote is not an equation. It is an expression.
