Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assign a variable that is the number when multiplied by 10% it is equal to 0.1.
Well let that be x.
Now we want to convert the 10% into a decimal. To convert a percent into a decimal, simply move the % sign two places to the left and make it into a decimal point.
When we say "of" in mathematics what we really mean is to multiply.
0.10 * x = 0.1
That is the equation we need to find the value of x for.
Divide both sides by 0.10
0.10 * x = 0.1
The 0.10 on the left side cancels out.
x = 1
So, the answer to this question is if we multiply 10% by 1 we will get 0.1.
Let <em>q</em> be the number of quarts of pure antifreeze that needs to be added to get the desired solution.
8 quarts of 40% solution contains 0.40 × 8 = 3.2 quarts of antifreeze.
The new solution would have a total volume of 8 + <em>q</em> quarts, and it would contain a total amount of 3.2 + <em>q</em> quarts of antifreeze. You want to end up with a concentration of 60% antifreeze, which means
(3.2 + <em>q</em>) / (8 + <em>q</em>) = 0.60
Solve for <em>q</em> :
3.2 + <em>q</em> = 0.60 (8 + <em>q</em>)
3.2 + <em>q</em> = 4.8 + 0.6<em>q</em>
0.4<em>q</em> = 1.6
<em>q</em> = 4
