Percent Concentration in Mixture Applications
In mixture applications involving concentrated cleaning supplies, chemicals, or mixed drinks, the concentration is typically expressed as a percent. A given percent concentration indicates the portion of the total mixture that consists of the active ingredient. For example, a concentrated household cleanser means that of the total amount is the cleanser, while the remaining portion is water. To prepare ounces of a concentration, one mixes ounces (which is of ) of the pure cleanser with ounces of water. When organizing this type of mixture problem, the standard table setup is modified by replacing the 'value' column with a 'percent' column.
