For every 1 litre of water used to make a medicine, 400 ml of sucrose and 300ml of saline solution are used. express the amount of water, sucrose and saline solution needed as a ratio in its simplest form

10 : 4 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to keep the same units first.

Since sucrose and saline are given in ml, we convert water (in liters) to ml.

We know 1000 ml = 1 liter, hence

Water is 1000 ml

Now, the ratio:

Water : Sucrose : Saline Solution [all in ml]

1000 : 400 : 300

Divide all by 100, we get:

1000/100 : 400/100 : 300/100

10 : 4 : 3

This can't be reduced anymore so this is the final answer.

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
