This question calls for a fraction. In a fraction, the numerator (top number) is the number of parts, while the denominator (bottom number) is the total number of parts. One part is one glass of milk, and there are 12 parts total. So, we get the answer 1/12.

Answer: 1/12

1/12. There are 12 parts so a unit fraction would be 1/12. Hope this helps!

How many gallons of pure water should be evaporated from 160 gallons of a solution containing 12% salt

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

66 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that initially 160 gallons of a solution containing 12% salt.

So, the initial amount of salt = 12% of 160 = 12/100 x 160 = 19.2 gallons.

Let x gallons of water get evaporated so that the remaining solution contains 20% salt.

The remaining amount of solution = 160-x gallons.

As the initial amount of salt is still in the solution which is equal to 20% of the remaining solution, so

19.2 = 20% of (160-x)

$\Rightarrow 19.2 = \frac {20}{100}\times (160-x) \\\\\Rightarrow 19.2 = \frac {1}{5}\times (160-x) \\\\\Rightarrow 19.2 \times 5= 160-x \\\\\Rightarrow 96= 160-x \\\\\Rightarrow x= 160-96 \\\\$
