Default 5% of 1 quart???

I really need some help figuring, simple ways to find out how to measure (example) the cc of the 5% additive to 1 quart.

Like, 5% wax to 1 quart of resin.

Does this make sense?

Thanks,
D

Is this the answer?

1.6 ounce [US, liquid] = 47.317 647 301 cubic centimeter

Question? If this Is right then how can I figure this on a simple calculator?

1 qt = 946.352946 cc

.05(946.352946)=47.3176473 cc

You are right!!

Your question has been asked and answered. Nobody knows what you're trying to do unless you are specific.

Outline what your problem is in detail and someone will be glad to address it.

I would say that I was pretty specific with my question In my first post or any of my post. I really don't know how to word It any more to the point.

In a previous post I used the following conversion to answer your initial question:

1 quart = 946.352946 cubic centimeters


So how many cc of a solution would be 5% of a quart? That was your question. See post #3

I did it 'using a simple calculator'.

And, I'm sorry, but I don't see another question.
