The cooling system needs 1 quart pf antifreeze for every 2 quarts of water to protect against winter freeze up. How much water should be drained from the cooling system and replaced with antifreeze to protect against freeze up? Answer by KMST(5328) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! = volume of water drained and replaced with antifreeze, in quarts is the ratio of antifreeze to water --> "equating the cross products", or multiplying both sides of the equal sign times
--> --> -->
You need to drain quarts of water and replace them with antifreeze.
