Answer:

65.2 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity 336 milliliters is the 100% of the solution. We can represent this information on a table:

Milliliters        Percentage of solution

     336        ⇔            100%

we are told that 19.4% of this solution is acid, and we need to know how many milliliters represents this percentage. I will call the number of milliliters of acid on the solution 'x', and updating the last table:

Milliliters        Percentage of solution

     336        ⇔            100

     x             ⇔            19.4%

We can solve this problem for 'x' using the<u> rule of three</u> which is to multiply the cross quantities on the table (336 by 19.4) and then divide by the remaining amount (100):

x = 336(19.4)/100

x = 6,518.4/100

x = 65.184

which rounding to the nearest tenth is: 65.2 milliliters

3 friends share the cost of a gift. The gift costs $70, but the store manager takes $10 off the market price. What amount should
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Amount each friend pays for the gift = $20

Step-by-step explanation:

Market price of a gift = $70

The store manager takes $10 off the market price.

Marked down amount = $10

New cost price = Marked price - Marked down amount =\$70-\$10=\$60

The cost of the gift is divided among three friends.

This means that the cost of gift which is $60 is divided by three to get each one's contribution in the gift.

∴ Amount each friend pays for the gift =\frac{60}{3}=\$20
