Ruth has a beaker containing a solution of 800 mL of acid and 200 mL of water. She thinks the solution is a little strong, so she drains 100 mL from the beaker, adds 100 mL of water, and stirs the solution. Ruth thinks the solution is still too strong, so again she drains 100 mL from the beaker, and adds 100 mL of water. How many mL of water are now in the beaker?

Answer:

Explanation:

Ok so the beaker is 200 water:800 acid

So she drains 100 from the acid and 100 from the water which equals

100:700

Then she adds 200 water:

300:700

there is 300 mL water in da beaker now
