A chemist is using373

milliliters of a solution of acid and water. If 13.9%

of the solution is acid, how many milliliters of acid are there? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 2

To calculate the percentage of the solution that is acid, you will need to find what 14.2% of the 347 mL is.

To do this you will use the following multiplication problem.
