A scientist has 2 3rd liter of solution. He uses 1 halfof the solution for an experiment. Howmuch solution does the scientist use forthe experiment?

SOLUTION
The total amout of solution given is
[tex]\frac{2}{3}\text{liter}[/tex]From thequestion, 1/2 of the solution is used, then the amount of solution used for the experiment will be
[tex]\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2\times1}{3\times2}=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}\text{liters }[/tex]Hence
The amount of solution the scientist use is 1/3 litres
