8 ounces = 1cup
2 cups = 1 pint
So, 16 ounces = 2 cups = 1pint
16 ounces = 1 pint
If you have 8 ounces, you would have half a pint.
If you have 20 ounces:
20 ounces/16 ounces= 5/4
So, you'd have 1 1/4 or 1.25 pints
To round to the nearest tenth place you are going to round the last two digits of that, you should get 519.7
16 tens = 16 x 10 = 160 ones
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
26% is (26-20)/(50-20) = 6/30 = 1/5 of the way between 20% and 50%. That means 1/5 of the solution is 50% acid.
50% acid: 1/5 · 100 mL = 20 mL
20% acid: 100 mL -20 mL = 80 mL
Delbert must mix 80 mL of 20% acid and 20 mL of 50% acid.
_____
Maybe you'd like to see an equation. Let x represent the amount of 50% acid required. Then 100-x is the amount of 20% acid needed. The amount of acid in the mix is ...
0.50(x) +0.20(100 -x) = 0.26(100)
(0.50 -0.20)x = (0.26 -0.20)100 . . . . subtract 0.20(100)
x = (0.26 -0.20)/(0.50 -0.20)×100 = 20
This last expression should look a lot like the one we started with in this answer. It shows you how you can almost write down the answer to mixture problems without a lot of work.
