Answer:
1.14 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 8% glycerin solution and we need to make it 16% glycerin solution [more concentration].
When we add "x" liters, we add glycerin as well as changes the total. in 12 Liters, there is 12 * 0.08 = 0.96Liters of glycerin. How much we need to add to this??
Note, 16% = 0.16
We can write a Ratio as shown below, cross multiply and solve for x:
We need to add around 1.14 liters

Check the picture below.
let's recall that the midsegment of a triangle is the segment that's half-way to both endsides and is at the same time parallel to the 3rd side, is also half the length of the parallel side, so-called the base.
so, for example, we know L, M and N are midpoints to each segment, that means that LM is a midsegment and parallel to PR and also half the length of PR, same is true for LN and MN.
