A pharmacist mixed a 20 percent solution with a 30 percent solution to obtain 100 liters of a 24 percent solution. How much of the 20 percent solution did the pharmacist use in the mixture (in liters).
7% of 24 = 7% * 24 = 0.07 * 24 = 1.68
There is no answer , -that is an impossible question.
7/8 = 87.5 % 24 x 87.5 percent = 21 answer 21/24
29.17%
Let L be the liters to be added. Then (L) x (0.2) + (40 x 0.9) = (L + 40) x 0.6 0.2L + 36 = 0.6L + 24 36 - 24 = (0.6 - 0.2)L 12 = 0.4L L = 12/0.4 = 120/4 = 30 Liters
7 divided by 24 = 0.291666 x 100 = 29.1666%

24/28 = 6/7 = approximately 85.7%

0.5 percent of 75 liters is 0.375l.
The solvent is a 20% solution, therefore 20% of the solution is the solvent, 80% is the solute; thus: solvent: 20% of 120 L = 20/100 x 120 L = 24 L Assuming none of the solvent is lost during the distillation, then the final solution is 90% solvent and 10% solute. Previously (above) it has been worked out that there are 24 liters of solvent, which now represents 90% of the (new) whole, so: 90% of the_new_whole = 24 L → 90/100 x the_new_whole = 24 L → the_new_whole = 24 L ÷ 90/100 = 24 L x 100/90 = 262/3 liters ≈ 26.667 liters of the final solution.
