There were 32 volunteers to donate blood. Unfortunately, n of the volunteers did not meet the health requirements, so they couldn't donate. The rest of the volunteers donated 470 milliliters each.

Answer:


(470)/(32-n)

Explanation:

We have been given that there were 32 volunteers to donate blood.


Let n be number of volunteers that did not meet the health requirements to donate blood. So we can find the number of volunteers that donated blood by subtracting n from total number of volunteers.

volunteers that donated blood = 32 - n


To find amount of blood donated by each volunteer we will divide the total amount of donated blood (470 ml) by number of volunteers that donated blood.

amount of blood donated by each volunteer =
(470mm)/((32-n))


Therefore, the expression that represents amount of blood donated by each volunteer will be
(470)/(32-n) milliliter per volunteer.


Hope this helped!
