Answer:142
Step-by-step explanation:
So... let's change the concentration percentage to decimal format. .. so 40% is just 4/100 or 0.4 and so on.

so... whatever "x" and "y" may be, we know the must add up to 6 liters.
and whatever 0.4x and 0.8y are, we also know, they must add up to a 3 of concentrated amount.
thus

solve for "x", to see how much of the 40% solution will be needed.
what about "y"? well, y = 6 - x.
No because equivalent is like 5/10 so it's not right
That's the same thing as saying 2/3 multiplied by 7/6.
So, the answer is 7/9.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to get like items on the same side(put the variables on one side and the non-variables on the other). Remember anything you do on one side of the equal, you have to do on the other side, too.
5X+3=7X-1 I'm going to move the -1 first, but you don't have to as long as you keep the equation equal.
5X+3+1=7X-1+1 We know that +1-1 is zero and so is -1+1. So
5X+3+1=7X We don't need to keep that zero.
5X+4=7X Now, we want to move the 5X over.
5X-5X+4=7X-5X Simplify and get rid of the zero.
4=2X Last, we have to divide to get the 2 away from the X.
4/2=2X/2 Not everyone know that slash mean divide, :-).
2=X
