Two solutions of acid were mixed to obtain 10 liters of new solution. Before they were mixed, the first solution contained 0.8 liters of acid while the second contained 0.6 liters of acid. If the percentage of acid in the first solution was twice that in the second, what was the volume of the first solution?
A. 3 liters
B. 3.2 liters
C. 3.6 liters
D. 4 liters
E. 4.2 liters
We can let x = the number of litres of the first solution (the one with 0.8 litres of acid), so 10 - x = the number of litres
