Question

A solution must be made such that for every 5 parts serum, there is a total volume of 12 parts solution. If the total volume is to be 600 mL, how much serum is needed?

Answer 1

(5/12) * 600

 

= 250 ml of serum is required

 

This problem deals with proportions if 5 in 12 parts required serum , what is 5 in 12 parts of 600 ?

 

That's the question you need to ask yourself in order to solve a problem of this nature.
