Question

one gallon of cleaning solution requires 6 oz of ammonia. if the maintenance depart how much ammonia is needed? 720 oz 720 gallons 20 oz 20 gallons

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the problem

We know that 1 gallon of cleaning solution requires 6 oz of ammonia. But we need to assume the number of gallons (let's assume 120 gallons as it is a common multiple - though the problem might have a typo as the original is cut off. If we assume we are making 120 gallons of solution).

Step2: Calculate the amount of ammonia

Using the proportion: amount of ammonia = (ounces of ammonia per gallon)×(number of gallons). If number of gallons \(n = 120\), and ammonia per gallon \(a=6\) oz. Then amount of ammonia \(A=6\times120\)

$$A = 6\times120=720$$

Answer:

720 oz
