HELP ME PLEASE
A certain drug is made from only two ingredients: compound A and compound B. There are 4 milliliters of compound A used for every 7 milliliters of compound B. If a chemist wants to make 1012 milliliters of the drug, how many milliliters of compound A are needed?

These are proportions.

Respuesta :

Answer:

368 milliliters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound A + Compound B = 1 drug

4 + 7 = 1 drug

11 milliliters = 1 drug, so 1012 milliliters = 92 drugs

Multiply the compounds by the amount of drugs, e.g.

4 x 92 = 368 ( Compound A )

7 x 92 = 644 ( Compound B )

368 + 644 = 1012

368 milliliters of Compound A are needed to make 1012 milliliters of the drug.

Hope this helps :)
