Answer:
62.5 oz of 100%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p represent the number of ounces of pure syrup. Then (100-p) is the number of ounces of 60% syrup. The amount of maple syrup in the desired mix is ...
p +0.60(100 -p) = 0.85(100)
0.40p +60 = 85 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
0.40p = 25 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 60
p = 62.5 . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.4
62.5 ounces of pure syrup should be mixed with the diluted syrup to make 100 ounces of 85% maple syrup.
_____
The other 37.5 ounces will be 60% syrup.

We are asked to determine the formula that can be used in solving the surface area of a cylinder given that one end is open while the other end is closed. The answer to this problem is Surface area = 2*pi*r*h or SA = 2pi*rh where "pi" is equivalent to 3.1416, the "r" represents the radius of the cylinder while the "h" represents the height of the cylinder.
