A solution of iodine and alcohol contains 3 ounces of iodine and 21 ounces of alcohol.
\n" ); document.write( " My question is how much be added to produce a solution that is 25% iodine?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the initial percent of iodine (in decimal form): \"3%2F%28%2821%2B3%29%29\" = .125
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = amt of iodine to be added to make it 25%
\n" ); document.write( ".125(24) + x = .25(x + 24)
\n" ); document.write( "3 + x = .25x + 6
\n" ); document.write( "3 + x - .25x = 6
\n" ); document.write( ".75x = 6 - 3
\n" ); document.write( ".75x = 3
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3/.75
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 oz of pure iodine added to make the mixture 25% iodine
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
