By weighted average, we need 75 liters of 24 % iodine solution and 25 liters of 40 % iodine solution to obtain 100 liters of 28 % iodine solution.

How to determine the volume associated with a given concentration

Physically speaking, concentration is equal to the amount of solute divided by the volume of solution. We have two solutions with same solute and different concentration and can find the right proportion between the 24 % solution and the 40 % solution by concept of weighted average:

x · 24 + (1 - x) · 40 = 28

40 - 16 · x = 28

16 · x = 40 - 28

16 · x = 12

x = 3/4

By weighted average, we need 75 liters of 24 % iodine solution and 25 liters of 40 % iodine solution to obtain 100 liters of 28 % iodine solution.
