Answer 1

reba--You posted this exact question on August 27 at 8:41 p.m. and I answered it then. Here is a link. Post your work if you don't understand something but be specific about what you don't understand. The problem CAN be worked in three stages; i.e., after the first, second, and third extraction but each done separately. The formula I gave you in the earlier post will work it in one step.
