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 =                                                                                               (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 =                                                                                              (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 :-

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

John is creating a Thanksgiving display at the store where he works, using only canned pumpkin and canned green beans. He needs
mezya [45]

Answer:

The number of Pumpkin can used   = 48 cans

The number of Green Beans can used =   16 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of Pumpkin to Green Beans =  3 :  1

So, for every 3 can of Pumpkin, 1 can of green beans is used.

Now, the total number of  John  wants to use = 64

Let us assume the common factor in the ratio is m.

⇒ The number of Pumpkin can used  = 3 m

The number of Green Beans can used = 1 m = m

So, the Total cans used = Number of (Pumpkin + Green Beans) can

⇒ 3 m + m = 64

or, 4 m =  64

⇒ m = 64/ 4 = 16

Hence, The number of Pumpkin can used  = 3 m = 3 x 16 = 48 cans

The number of Green Beans can used = m =  16 cans
