If 4/10 of the population have blood type O+, that means 40% of the population have that blood type. To change a fraction to percent, the easiest way is to make the denominator 100. To do this, multiply the whole fraction by 1 (1/1, 2/2, etc). In this case, multiply by 10/10. 4/10 * 10/10 is equal to 40/100. Then, if you have a denominator of 100, the numerator is the percent. Therefore, 40/100 is 40%.

A chef plans to mix 100% vinegar with Italian dressing. The Italian dressing contains 12%

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Amount of vinegar. 100% : 20 milliliters

Amount of Italian dressing: 140 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the amount of vinegar. 100%

Let's call B the amount of Italian dressing . 12% vinegar

The resulting mixture should have 23% vinegar, and 160 milliliters.

Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

$A + B = 160$

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:

$A + 0.12B = 0.23 * 160$

$A + 0.12B = 36.8$

Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -1 and add it to the second equation:

$-A -B = -160$

$-A -B = -160$

+

$A + 0.12B = 36.8$

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

$-0.88B = -123.2$

$B = \frac{-123.2}{-0.88}$

$B = 140\ milliliters$

We substitute the value of B into one of the two equations and solve for A.

$A + 140 = 160$

$A = 20\ milliliters$
