Given that,
The ratio of acid and water is 1 : 5.
A bottle contains 228 ml of the mixture.
To find,
How much water were needed to make this amount of mixture.
Solution,
Let acid is x and water is 5x. ATQ,
x+5x = 228
6x = 228
x = 38
Acid = 38 mL
Water = 5x
= 5(38)
= 190 mL
Hence, 190 mL of water is needed.
