End answer is five hundred and 6
Let's bear in mind that 5 gallons with a solution of 6% bleach, contains some water plus some bleach, how much bleach? well, is just 6% of 5 gallons or namely (6/100) * 5 gallons, or 0.30 gallons.
if we use "x" gallons of water, well pure water has no bleach, so is 0% bleach, and it has a (0/100) * x or 0x gallons of bleach.
the mixture will be say "y" gallons, and is 4% bleach, so (4/100) * y is 0.04y gallons in the mixture of bleach.
Given:
The recipe calls for cup of strawberries for each gallon of lemonade.
Tia has 6 cups of strawberries.
To find:
The number of gallons of lemonade she can make.
Solution:
We have,
cup of strawberries for = 1 gallon of lemonade
cup of strawberries for = gallons of lemonade
= gallons of lemonade
= gallons of lemonade
cup of strawberries for = gallons of lemonade
= gallons of lemonade
= gallons of lemonade
Therefore, 9 gallons of lemonade she can make by using 6 cups of strawberries.
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio of the 2 numbers = 3 : 4 = 3x : 4x ( x is a multiplier ) , then
3(3x) + 2(4x) = 68 , that is
9x + 8x = 68
17x = 68 ( divide both sides by 17 )
x = 4
smaller number = 3x = 3 × 4 = 12
