Question 632783: You need to prepare 65 mL of a 60% soda/syrup “prescription”. To do this, you can use the 80% soda
solution and the syrup solution (0%) that you have in inventory. How many mL of each solution do you
need to create this final solution? Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You need to prepare 65 mL of a 60% soda/syrup “prescription”.
To do this, you can use the 80% soda solution and the syrup solution (0%)
that you have in inventory.
How many mL of each solution do you need to create this final solution?
:
Let x = amt of syrup required
the total result is to be 65 ml, therefore:
(65-x) = amt of 60% soda
:
.80(65-x) = .60(65)
52 - .80x = 39
-.8x = 39 - 52
-.8x = -13
x =
x = +16.25 ml of syrup required
then
65-16.25 = 48.75 ml of soda solution
