Explanation
Correct answer: 3/2,1.5,1.50.
The total amount, in liters, of a saline solution can be expressed as the liters of each type of saline solution multiplied by the percent concentration of the saline solution. This gives , , and , where is the amount, in liters, of saline solution and , , and are represented as , , and , respectively. Thus, the equation must be true. Multiplying by and distributing to yields . Subtracting and from each side of the equation gives . Dividing each side of the equation by yields . Note that 3/2, 1.5, and 1.50 are examples of ways to enter a correct answer.
