Hi.
I'm planning to preserve something. The strongest alcohol I can get is 72%. Wondering if there is 13 % of alcohol in the mixture, what would the percentages of glycerine and bth be.

Anyone attempting to give hints to you on how to answer the question may need more information and a clearer question without abbreviations / text speak like
bth
.
For instance
what kind of alcohol (example drinking or wood or rubbing)
(if it is booze or denatured then it has other stuff in it typically)
what is the 72% that you mentioned mixed with (example - glycerin or water)
what do you intend to mix it with (example - glycerin or water)
what do you mean
Wondering if there is 13 % of alcohol in the mixture
when you say
The strongest alcohol I can get is 72%
According to forum rules we will only typically give you hints as to how to do the calculations
or let you know if you calculations are correct.
(please read forum rules)
It might be helpful if you let us know how much chemistry experience you have
==================
edit ..
I forgot
when you say percent with alcohol
do you mean by weight or by volume
