What do you need to do to a concentrated solution to make it weaker?

What do you need to do to a concentrated solution to make it weaker?
You can dilute it by adding more solvent. Many solutions are in water. Therefore, adding more water will decrease the concentration.

C = n/v

Concentration is inversely proportional to volume and directly proportional to the amount of solute. An increase in volume or a decrease in the amount of solute, will decrease concentration.
