Answer:
4 liters of 5% and 16 liters of 17.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let quantity of 5% be x liters and of 17.5% be y liters
x+y=20 hence y=20-x
Introducing percentages
0.05x+0.175(20-x)=0.15*20
0.05x+3.5-0.175x=3
-0.125x=-0.5
Therefore, y=20-x=20-4=16
You need 4 liters of 5% and 16 liters of 17.5% to achieve 20 liters of 15% acid solution
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 360 degrees in a circle, we can set up the following proportion:
Answer:
Dylan delivered 140 parcels on Wednesday.
Step-by-step explanation:
On Wednesday:
On Wednesday, he delivered x parcels.
Thursday:
10% more than Wednesday, so 100 + 10 = 110% of x = 1.1x
Friday:
50% pless than on Thursday, so 100 - 50 = 50% of 1.1x = 0.5*1.1*x.
THis is equals to 77. So
Dylan delivered 140 parcels on Wednesday.
