Step-by-step explanation:
60%o of 50 is 30 :)
Given parameters:
Number of boxes Athena bought for the party = x
Number of cookies per box = 10
Number of cookies she brought to the party = 70
Number removed = 2 boxes
Unknown:
Equation of the number of boxes = ?
Solution:
1 box of cookies contains 10 cookies
If Athena, removed 2 boxes, in those two boxes, we have 20 cookies
Total number of cookies = 70 + 20 = 90 cookies;
So;
x =
Therefore;
x = boxes
<span>−6/11 ⋅ 3/4
= -3/11 </span>⋅ 3/2
= -9/22

There are 20 gallons of 20% butterbeer solution.
Assume there are x gallons of 80% solution.
So total amount of the solution will be (x+20) gallons
The final solution is 50%.
So, we can set up the equation as:
.
Thus, there will be 20 gallons of 80% butterbeer solution that is needed to be mixed with 20 gallons of 20% butterbeer solution.
