Question

Doreen Schmidt is a chemist. She needs to prepare 24 of a 8​% hydrochloric acid solution. Find the amount of 12​% solution and the amount of 6​% solution she should mix to get this solution.

Answer 1

Explanation:

12x+6(24-x)=7*24

12x+144-6x=168

12x-6x =168-144

6x=24

/6

x=4 ounces 12.00%

20 ounces 6.00%
