Answer:

Must add 100 milliliters of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> milliliters of water to add

we know that

Originally

The milliliters of lemon concentrate is equal to the 10% of 100 mL

so

[tex]0.10(100)=10\ mL[/tex]

Now

The balance of lemon concentrate is equal to 5%

The milliliters of lemon concentrate is the same

so

[tex]0.05(100+x)=10[/tex]

solve for x

[tex]5+0.05x=10[/tex]

[tex]x=100\ mL[/tex]

therefore

Must add 100 milliliters of water
