We need 84 gallons of 3% butterfat milk and (84 * 3) = 252 gallons of 7% butterfat milk to obtain 336 gallons of 6% butterfat milk.  

<h3>How to work with percentages?</h3>

Let x = number of gallons of 3% milk

Thus;

336 - x = number of gallons of 7% milk

Therefore;

0.03x + 0.07(336 - x) = 0.06(336)

0.03x + 23.52 - 0.07x = 20.16

-0.04x = -3.36

x = 84 gallons

We need 84 gallons of 3% butterfat milk and (84 * 3) = 252 gallons of 7% butterfat milk to obtain 336 gallons of 6% butterfat milk.

kirill [66]

Answer:

11 am

Step-by-step explanation:

Bus A and Bus B leave the bus depot at 9 am.

Bus A takes 30 minutes to complete its route once

Bus B takes 40 minutes to complete its route once.

We solve this finding the Lowest Common Multiple of the minutes each bus uses to complete it's route

30 = 3 × 10

40 = 4 × 10

= 3 × 4 × 10

= 120 minutes

120 minutes after 9 am is

60 minutes = 1 hour

60 minutes = 1 hour

= 2 hours.

9am + 2 hours

= 11 am.

Therefore, they be back at the bus depot together at 11 am
