Answer 1

Given:

A cleansing agent is mixed with water in the ratio 1:5.

To find:

Find the amount of cleansing agent​ in 300 L of solution

Solution:

Let's assume,

"x" → represents the amount of cleansing agent in the solution

"5x" → represents the amount of water in the solution

So,

The total amount of solution = x + 5x = 6x

Now, according to the question, we can form an equation as:

$6x = 300$

$\implies x = \frac{300}{6}$

$\implies \bold{x = 50 }$

Thus, the amount of cleansing agent in the solution is → 50 L.
