The ratio of bleach to water in a cleaning solution is 2:18. For every 1 liter of bleach, how many liters of water are in the solution

For every 1 liter of bleach there are 9 liters of water in the solution

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The ratio of bleach to water in a cleaning solution is 2 : 18

- That means for every 2 liters of bleach there is 18 liters of water

∵ There is 1 liter of bleach

- Let us use the ratio method

→  bleach  :  water

→  2           :  18

→  1            :  x

- By using cross multiplication

∴ x × 2 = 1 × 18

∴ 2 x = 18

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 9

∵ x represents the number of liters of the water in the solution

∴ The number of liters of the water in the solution is 9

For every 1 liter of bleach there are 9 liters of water in the solution

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
