A chemist has one solution that is 15% acid and another solution that is 25% acid. How much of the 15% solution is needed to make 100 L of a solution that is 18% acid?
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "f = amount of 15%
\n" ); document.write( "t = amount of 25%
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "f + t = 100 (total solution)
\n" ); document.write( "0.15f + 0.25t = 0.18*100 (total acid)
\n" ); document.write( "You can finish it.
\n" ); document.write( "
