Let us assume that x pint water must be mixed with 4 pints of 50 percent acetic acid to produce a mixture that is 33 percent acetic acid.

Therefor 4 pint*50 %=(4+x)pint*33%

200 =132 pints + x pints

200-132 = x*33 pints

68 /33 = x pints

So x = 2.06 pints

Answer :

2.06 pint water must be mixed with 4 pints of 50 percent acetic acid to produce a mixture that is 33 percent acetic acid.
