70% to passYour tankship has 40 gallons of 6% foam concentrate aboard. Approximately how much foam solution can be produced from this supply?
A
200 gallons
B
420 gallons
C
667 gallons
D
986 gallons
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 667 gallons. To explain: The key information given is that the tankship has 40 gallons of 6% foam concentrate. To calculate the amount of foam solution that can be produced, we need to use the formula: Foam solution = Foam concentrate / Concentration. In this case, 40 gallons of 6% foam concentrate can produce 40 / 0.06 = 667 gallons of foam solution. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the amount of foam solution that can be produced from the given 40 gallons of 6% foam concentrate.
