to dilute a concentrated liquid fabric softener, the directions state to mix 3 cups of water with 1 cup of concentrated liquid. how many gallons of water will you need to make 6 gallons of diluted fabric softener?

1 gallon=16 cups
6 gallons = 96 cups

Notice the ratio between water to concentrated liquid= 3:1

x:96
x=288 cups of water required

288/16=18 gallons

Hope I helped :)
