Answer:

30 gallons of 20% acid solution should be mixed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x gallons of a 20% acid solution was mixed with 30 gallons of a 40% solution, to obtain a mixture of 30% acid solution.

Therefore, final volume of the solution will be (x + 30) gallons.

Now concept to solve this question is

20%.(x) + 40%.(30) = 30%.(x + 30)

0.20(x) + 0.40(30) = 0.30(x + 30)

0.20x + 12 = 0.30x + 9

0.30x - 0.20x = 12 - 9

.10x = 3

x = \frac{3}{0.1}

x = 30 gallons

Therefore, 30 gallons of the 20% acid solution should be mixed.

List the two factor pairs of 10
Triss [41]
The factors of 10 are 1, 2, 5, and 10. You can also look at this the other way around: if you can multiply two whole numbers to create a third number, those two numbers are factors of the third. 2 x 5 = 10, so 2 and 5 are factors of 10. 1 x 10 = 10, so 1 and 10 are also factors of 10.
