Question

Nadine mixes a juice solution that is made from 3 gallons of an 80% juice solution and 1 gallon of a 20% juice solution. What is the percent concentration of the final solution?

Answer 1

Answer:

Percentage of concentration of the final solution is 65%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there are two types of juice solution : A and B

In A:

Number of gallons = 3

Concentration Amount of juice solution = 0.80

Total amount of concentration is given by

In B:

Number of gallon = 1

Concentration Amount of juice solution = 0.2

total amount of concentration is given by

Total number of gallons be 3+1=4

Concentration of the final solution be x

Total concentration of the final solution for 4 gallons be 4x

So, according to question,

4x = 2.4 + 0.2

4x = 2.6

x = (2.6)/4

x = (26/40) × 100

x = 65%

Hence, Percentage of concentration of the final solution is 65%.
