Your tankship has 40 gallons of 6% foam concentrate aboard. Approximately how much foam solution can be produced from this supply?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — 667 gallons

Calculating total foam solution from a 6% concentrate involves dividing the concentrate volume by the percentage proportion (40 gallons divided by 0.06), which yields approximately 667 gallons of usable firefighting foam solution ready for injection.
