Answer:

5 ml of 50% syrup solution will be used to create the final solution

Step by step Explanation:

Let the amount of 50% solution that was used = b

Which means ( 30 - b ) is the amount of 1/200 solution used then we can derive an equation as follows,

set up will then be,

0.5b +0.05(30 -b) = 1/8 (30)

We can simplifiy this as

0.5b+ 1.5 -0.05b = 3.75

Then make b the subject of the formula we have

0.45b = 2.25

b= 2.25/0.45

b = 5 ml

Therefore, 5ml of 50% syrup solution will be used to create the final solution
