the doctor orders a 14 1/2 % solution
\n" ); document.write( " he asks the pharmacy to prepare 35 ml of the solution
\n" ); document.write( " how many grams of pure drug will be in 35 ml of this 14 1/2 % solution round to the nearest tenth.
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Question:: Are you mixing the 35% solution with pure water?
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "Assuming you are you get:
\n" ); document.write( "active + active = active
\n" ); document.write( "1*x + 0(35-x) = 0.145*35
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 1000 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "1000x + 0 = 145*35
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5.075 ml (amount of pure drug needed)
\n" ); document.write( "35-x = 29.925 ml (amout of pure water needed)
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
