Answer:

24% saline

Step-by-step explanation:

Find how much saline is in both solutions:

7(0.27)

= 1.89

3(0.17)

= 0.51

Add this together:

1.89 + 0.51

= 2.4

Since there are 10 quarts in total, the concentration of the mixture can be found by dividing 2.4 by 10:

2.4/10

= 0.24

So, the concentration of the mixture is 24% saline
