Aradiator contains 10 quarts of fluid, 30% of which is antifreeze. how much fluid should be drained and replaced with pure antifreeze so that the new mixture is 60% antifreeze? a. 3 quarts c. 4.28 quarts b. 2 quarts d. 2.67 quarts

ANSWER

Find out the how much fluid should be drained and replaced with pure antifreeze so that the new mixture is 60% antifreeze .

To proof

let us assume that the fluid should be drained and replaced with pure antifreeze be x .

As given

A radiator contains 10 quarts of fluid, 30% of which is antifreeze.

Now write 30% in the decimal form

Now write 60% in the decimal form

After  drained and replaced the fluid with pure antifreeze than the quantity becomes = ( 10 - x )

The quantity of  antifreeze is

The fluid should be drained and replaced with pure antifreeze so that the new mixture is 60% antifreeze .

than the equation becomes

solyving

100x +300 - 30x = 600

70x = 300

x = 4.28 quarts (approx)

Hence 4.28 quarts (approx) fluid should be drained and replaced with pure antifreeze so that the new mixture is 60% antifreeze .

Therefore the option (c.) is correct .
