Question 994420: Please help me solve this problem:
4 ml of a 5% saline solution was mixed with 3
ml of a 89% saline solution. Find the
concentration of the new mixture. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 4 ml of 5%
3 ml of 89%
.05(4)+.89*3=7*unknown %
.20+2.67=7*unknown=2.87
divide by 7, both sides
unknown %=41 or 0.41
