    How much 90% vinegar do you have to add to a gallon of 5% vinegar to get 20% vinegar?

    Question #19911. Asked by greg. (Jun 17 02 3:37 AM)


    Gnomon

    		Three fourteenths of a gallon. (0.214 gallons).

    1 gallon of 5% vinegar contains 0.05 gallons of pure vinegar
    0.214 gallons of 90% vinegar contains 0.193 gallons of pure vinegar
    Combining these, we get 1.214 gallons of diluted vinegar containing 0.243 gallons of pure vinegar. 0.243 divided by 1.214 is 20%.
