If Sandra mixes <em>x</em> L of 65% solution with <em>y</em> L of 90% solution, then the resulting mixture has a total volume of
<em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 500
litres, and it contains
0.65<em>x</em> + 0.90<em>y</em> = 0.75 (500) = 375
litres of alcohol.
Solve the first equation for <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = 500 - <em>x</em>
<em />
Substitute this into the second equation and solve for <em>x</em> :
0.65<em>x</em> + 0.90 (500 - <em>x</em>) = 375
0.65<em>x</em> + 450 - 0.90<em>x</em> = 375
75 = 0.25<em>x</em>
<em>x</em> = 300
Solve for <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = 500 - 300
<em>y</em> = 200
So, Sandra should mix 300 L of 65% solution with 200 L of 90% solution.
Not sure if this is very clear
Patty = 45.8%
Bun = 20.8%
Cheese = 8.3%
Sauce = 12.5%
Pickles = 4.2%
Veggies = 8.3%
EXPLANATION :
The equation to find a percentage is part(the broken down calories) over whole ( the total calories) is equal to % which we replace with x (since we’re trying to find the %) over 100 because all percents are out of 100. So for simple terms, p/w = %/100.
What I did was put 550/1200 = x/100, cross multiply, leaving you with 1200x=55000, then divide 55000/1200, giving you 45.8.
20% of 106
= 0.20 * 106
= 21.2
21.2 = 10.6% of 21.2 / 0.106
= 200 answer
2. 56 * 0.055 / 0.35
= 8.8
3. 6.4 / 0.8 = 8
