We know that 20% of the first type of juice is pure fruit juice and 45% of second type of juice is pure fruit juice.
Now we have to make 30 pints of a mixture that is 35% pure.
Let x be the number of pints of first type of juice and y be the number of pints of second type of juice.
So,
(Equation 1)
Since, 20% of x + 45% of y = 35.3% of 30
(Equation 2)
Solving equations 1 and 2,
we get y=18 and x=12.
So, 12 pints of first type of juice and 18 pints of second type of juice are used.
Answer:
3/18 = 1/6 =.16666666.....
.16(would be repeating)
your choice D and A are the same, and choice C and B are the same!
hope this helps!
There's an app called photo math that can really help you with your problem
You said that (1/2) / N = 1/3
Multiply each side by 'N' : (1/2) = 1/3 N
Multiply each side by 3 : 3/2 = N
or 1-1/2 = N .
