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
