Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A mixture contains 60% of liquid X and 40% of liquid Y. If the total volume of the mixture is 150 liters, how much of liquid Y is there?
  • Step 1: Understand that the mixture has two liquids: liquid X and liquid Y.
  • Step 2: Note that liquid Y makes up 40% of the total mixture.
  • Step 3: Find the total volume of the mixture, which is given as 150 liters.
  • Step 4: Calculate the amount of liquid Y by taking 40% of 150 liters.
  • Step 5: To calculate 40% of 150 liters, convert 40% to a decimal, which is 0.4.
  • Step 6: Multiply 0.4 by 150 liters: 0.4 * 150 = 60 liters.
  • Step 7: Conclude that there are 60 liters of liquid Y in the mixture.
  • Percentage Calculation – Understanding how to calculate a percentage of a total volume.
  • Proportions in Mixtures – Applying the concept of proportions to determine the quantities of components in a mixture.
