Answer:

<em><u>Part A: </u></em>(40/100)*x = 1 where x is the total contents of the bottle.

<em><u>Part B</u></em>: 1.5 Liters = the Lemon Juice

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

Let the full contents of the bottle = x

<em><u>Equation</u></em>

Since 60% of it is lemon juice, then 100% - 60% = 40% must be water.

(60/100) * x = ??  Equation for Lemon Juice. You have to solve the water first.

(40/100) * x = 1    Equation for water

Part B

(40/100) * x = 1     change the 40% to a decimal

0.4x = 1                 Divide by 0.4

x = 1/0.4 = 2.5 L

Now to find out the amount of lemon juice

0.6 * 2.5 = Lemon Juice

1.5 L = the amount of Lemon Juice.
