<PRE><B>Question 795826</B>
A pharmacist wishes to mix a solution that is 6% Minoxidil. She has on hand 60 ml of 2% solution and wishes to add some 8% solution to obtain the desired 6% solution. How much 8% solution should she add?
--------
Mino + Mino = Mino
0.02*60 + 0.08x = 0.06(60+x)
---------
2*60 + 8x = 6*60 + 6x
------
2x = 4*60
------
x = 120 ml (amt. of 8% solution needed)
