Title: I have 95 liters of a reagent. This represents 85 % of the total volume. How do I determine volume of remain? Post by: irina on Dec 22, 2012 I have 96 L (the limiting factor) of a reagent. This represents 85 % of the total volume. How do I determine the volume needed to make up the remaining 15 % neede to make this blend?

96(15/85)=16.94117647...= 16.94(2D) Title: I have 95 liters of a reagent. This represents 85 % of the total volume. How do I determine volume of remain? Post by: toney32 on Dec 22, 2012 Okay. The only way I can think of is to set up a proportion and solve for the unknown factor. So it would be:
95 L ..... X ------ = ------- 0.85 .... 0.15 95 * 0.15 = 0.85X (Solve for X) 14.25 = 0.85X (Divide both sides by 0.85) 16.764 = X (So the additional 15% of the volume is approximately 16 3/4 L) But that's if it is 95 L and not 96 L (your title says 95 L and your description says 96 L) Hope that helps!
