We have 60 gallons of 20% antifreeze.
How much 70% antifreeze do we add to get 60% antifreeze?
We'll make "x" the gallons of 70% we must add.
.20 * 60 + .70 x = .60 * (60 + x)
12 + .70x = 36 + .60x
.10x = 24
x = 240 gallons of 70% antifreeze.

Hello!!
So the product is when numbers or variables are multiplied together. So if we have 12 * 3/4 then that equals 12/1*3/4=(12*3)/4=36/4=9
So we can see that the product of 12*3/4 is less than 12. We can see this right from the start by noticing that to be at least 12, then 12 would have to be multiplied by at minimum 1 meaning 12*1=12 anything less than 1 would result in a lesser value than 12.
Hope this helps!! Any questions please just ask!! Thank you!!!
Hello, there!
If s = 9, then 2s = 2 * 9
2 * 9 = 18
2s = 18
I hope I helped!
Let me know if you need anything else!
