Question

Hanna makes her own furniture polish using twenty-five percent vinegar and seventy-five percent olive oil. Write and solve an equation to determine how much total solution she made if she used 2 cups of vinegar. Show your work.

Answer 1

That furniture polish would also make pretty good salad dressing.

But anyway. If she used two cups of vinegar and \(o\) cups of oil then the total she used is \(o+2\). Do you see where to start now or do you need another hint?
