Answer:

30 liters of 50% acid solution!

Explanation:

x-liters of 50% acid solution

We need a total of 60*0.6 liters of acid

*36 liters of acid

0.5x+0.7(60-x)=36 (liters of acid)

Expand

0.5x+42-0.7x=36

0.2x=6

x=30

(To solve this informally you can think that you need equal amounts of both solutions since 0.6 is the average of 50% and 70% acid solutions)
