Question 1108716: There are 400 liters of a 16% solution in container A. There is a pure solution (100%) in container B. If the goal is to make a 20% solution, how many liters of the pure solution from container B must be added to container A Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! There are 400 liters of a 16% solution in container A. There is a pure solution (100%) in container B. If the goal is to make a 20% solution, how many liters of the pure solution from container B must be added to container A
--------------
16*400 + 100*B = 20*(400+B)
Solve for B
