You can put this solution on YOUR website! C=6,000/(200-2X)
C=6,000/(200-2*.75))
C=6,000/(200-1.5)
C=6,000/198.5
C=30.23 MILLION FOR 75% REMOVAL.
C=6,000/(200-2*.9)
C=6,000/200-1.8)
C=6,000/198.2
C=30.27 MILLION FOR 90% REMOVAL.
C=6,000/(200-2*.99)
C=6,000/(200-1.98)
C=6,000/198.02
C=30.30 MILLION FOR 99% REMOVAL.
