Question

According to a magazine, a cleaning solution of 5% bleach will remove mildew from a shower or tub.

How many ounces of bleach do you need to make a quart of 5% bleach solution?
Explain the method you used using complete sentences.

Answer 1

If a 1 quart solution needs to be 5% bleach, then 5% of quart should be bleach. Calculate 5% of 1 quart to determine the amount of bleach in quarts. From there, 1 quart = 32 fluid oz, so multiply your previous result by 32.
