<span>find the range. [15(35)]+[12(60)] and this will be your high end. now do it again but at the low end [15(20)]+[12(30)] and this will be your low end. now you have the max amount the price would be and the lowest amount of the price. now look at your answers and see what is within that range and what isn't and there's your answer.</span>

A paint company mixes it's paint with water to create more paint per gallon. They currently have ten gallon jugs which contain 1
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
<h3>Answer:  1.25 gallons</h3>

==================================

Explanation:

They currently have ten gallon jugs that contain 10% water, so this means 0.10*10 = 1 gallon of the jug is water and the other 10-1 = 9 gallons is paint. This is assuming the cans are just paint and water.

The ratio of paint to water is 90:10 which reduces to 9:1

Often it helps to reduce as much as possible, but it's actually more handy in this case to keep it at 90:10 so you can see the two parts add back up to 100%

--------------

Let x be the amount of water we add. This amount is in gallons.

We start off with 1 gallon of water and it bumps up to 1+x gallons of water.

The overall amount of 10 gallons also bumps up to 10+x gallons.

We want a ratio of 80:20 this time, so we want 20 parts water and 80 parts paint. In other words, we want 20/(20+80) = 20/100 = 20% water

Divide (1+x) over (10+x) to get (1+x)/(10+x). This represents the fraction of water. We want this fraction to be equal to 0.20, which is the 20% water amount. It is also equal to 20/100.

--------------

(1+x)/(10+x) = 20/100

100(1+x) = 20(10+x) ... cross multiply

100+100x = 200+20x ... distribute

100x-20x = 200-100

80x = 100

x = 100/80 ... divide both sides by 80

x = 1.25

You need to add 1.25 gallons of water

--------------

If you add 1.25 gallons of water, then,

amount of water = 1+x = 1+1.25 = 2.25

amount of paint&water = 10+x = 10+1.25 = 11.25

So you'll have 2.25 gallons of water out of 11.25 gallons of water&paint mix

2.25/11.25 = 0.2 = 20% water

This confirms our answer.

--------------

Extra info:

1.25 gallons = 1 gallon + 1/4 gallon

1.25 gallons = 1 gallon + 1 quart

This is because 1 gallon = 4 quarts, so 1 quart = 1/4 gallon.
