Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation, where x is the number of gallons of 60% antifreeze solution.

Represent the percentages of antifreeze with decimal values.

0.6x + 0.3(80) = 0.5(x + 80)

Simplify and solve for x:

0.6x + 24 = 0.5x + 40

0.1x = 16

x = 160

So, you have to mix 160 gallons of a 60% antifreeze solution

Jamie has a piece of wood that is 6/8 inches long. He cuts the wood into pieces that are ¼ inches long. How many pieces of wood

pashok25 [27]

Answer: three pieces.

The piece of wood is 6/8 inches long - this fraction can be simplified to 3/4 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2.

Thus, he cuts a piece of wood that is 3/4 inches long into 1/4 inch pieces.

1 goes into 3 three times, so the piece of wood can be cut into three 1/4-inch pieces.
