Question 821079: how much of a 10% syrup solution should be added to 2 litres of a 30% syrup solution to get a 20% syrup solution Found 2 solutions by stanbon, TimothyLamb:Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! how much of a 10% syrup solution should be added to 2 litres of a 30% syrup solution to get a 20% syrup solution
--------------
Equation:
active + active = active
0.10x + 0.30*2 = 0.20(x+2)
-------
10x + 30*2 = 20x + 20*2
-----------------
10x = 10*2
----
x = 2 litres (amt. of 10% solution needed)

============
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 10x + 30(2) = 20(x + 2)
10x + 60 = 20x + 40
10x = 20
