Can someone please solve this math problem for me, and perhaps explain how they did it?
Alice's grandfather uses brine solution to make pickles. He has 8 gallons of 5% brine solution (5% salt and 95% water). How much of this solution should be poured and replaced with water to result in a 3% solution? Hopefully someone will be nice enough to help me...but math sucks so I understand if you don't want to. |

Thank you Mindy.
As for the others, please do not post just to say that you do not know they answer. It is against this forum's rules. |
