Katy needs to mix a 30 acid solution with a 60 acid solution
Katy needs to mix a 30% acid solution with a 60% acid solution to create 200 millileters of a 52.5% solution. How many millileters of each solution must Katy use?
Solution
.60X+.30(200-X)=.525*200
 .60+60-.30X=105
 .30X=105-60
 .30X=45
 X=45/.30
 X=150 MILLILITERS OF THE 60% ACID SOLUTION IS USED.
 PROOF:
 .60*150+.30(200-150)=105
 90+.30*50=105
 90+15=105
 105=105
