This scenario is mostly found during a store sale where they offer discounts.

Assuming: Original price = 90 ; discount rate = 25%

Discount value = Original price * discount rate
Discount value = 90 x 25% = 22.50

Since 25% is the discount, you only need to pay 75% of the original price.

Discounted Price = original price * (100-25)% = 90 x 75% = 67.50

A radiator contains 8 quarts of fluid, 40% of which is antifreeze. How much fluid should be drained and replaced with pure antif
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: 1.6 quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A radiator contains 8 quarts of fluid, 40% of which is antifreeze.

[40% can be written as 0.40.]

Then, the amount of antifreeze in radiator = 0.40\times8=3.2\text{ quarts}                                                                                              (1)

 

If a radiator contains 8 quarts of fluid with 60% of which is antifreeze.

[60% can be written as 0.60.]

Then, the amount of antifreeze in radiator = 0.60\times8=4.8\text{ quarts}                                                                                             (2)

 

Now subtract (1) from (2) we get,

The amount of fluid should be drained and replaced with pure antifreeze so that the new mixture is 60% antifreeze :-

4.8-3.2=1.6\text{ quarts}

Hence, the 1.6 quarts of fluid should be drained  and replaced with pure antifreeze so that the new mixture is 60% antifreeze
