A 56 gallon solution of salt and water is 10% salt. How many gallons of water must be added to the solution in order to decrease the salt to 8% of the volume? Choose the correct choice from the following answers:
A) 8  B) 12  C) 13  D) 14  E) 16
Amount of salt = 5.6   Assume x gallons of water are added.   5.6 / 56 + x = 8/100   560 = 8x + 448   8x = 112   x = 14   Correct Option: 14
