Q. There were 3232 volunteers to donate blood. Unfortunately, n n of the volunteers did not meet the health requirements, so they couldn't donate The rest of the volunteers donated 470470 milliliters each.\newlineHow many milliliters of blood did the volunteers donate? Write your answer as an expression.\newlinemilliliters
  1. Identify Volunteers and Blood Amount: Identify the total number of volunteers and the amount of blood each volunteer donates.\newlineTotal number of volunteers: 3232\newlineAmount of blood donated by each volunteer: 470470 milliliters
  2. Determine Donating Volunteers: Determine the number of volunteers who were able to donate blood.\newlineSince nn volunteers could not donate, the number of volunteers who did donate is 32n32 - n.
  3. Calculate Total Blood Donated: Calculate the total amount of blood donated.\newlineTo find the total amount of blood donated, multiply the number of volunteers who donated by the amount of blood each donated.\newlineTotal blood donated = (32n)×470(32 - n) \times 470 milliliters
  4. Write Expression for Total Blood: Write the expression for the total amount of blood donated.\newlineThe expression for the total amount of blood donated is (32n)×470(32 - n) \times 470 milliliters.
