Have a medicine that comes as a solution: 3% Aethoxysklerol medicine in 2ml.
\n" ); document.write( "Wish to have a concentration of 0.6% Aethoxysklerol.
\n" ); document.write( "How much saline would I need to add to the 2ml of 3% to get 0.6% concentration ??
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "saline + saline = saline
\n" ); document.write( "0.97*2 + x = 0.994(x+2)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 1000
\n" ); document.write( "970*2 + 1000x = 994x + 994*2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "6x = 24*2
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4*2 = 8 ml (Amt of saline to add)
\n" ); document.write( "======================================
