Do you mean fraction?
Here's how you change improper fractions into whole numbers:
example: 24/6 becomes 4 because 24 divided by 6 equals 4.

37/3 becomes 12 1/3 because 37 divided by 3 is 12 remainder 1. The 12 becomes a whole number and the remainder becomes the numerator of the fraction.

How many kg of 30% salt solution by mass and 40% salt solution by mass should be mixed to form 200kg of 37% salt solution ?

allochka39001 [22]

Let us assume that x kg of 30% salt solution is mixed with (200-x) kg of 40% salt solution in order to obtain 200 kg of 37% salt solution.

We can set up a linear equation in terms of x by setting amount of total salt before mixing and after mixing equal to each other.

$30\%\text{ of }x+40\%\text{ of }(200-x)=37\%\text{ of }200\\0.30x+0.40(200-x)=0.37(200)\\0.30x+80-0.40x=74\\0.10x=6\\x=60$
