Step 1
<span>Find the difference between 87 and 24
(87-24)=63
step 2
</span><span>Find 7.4 times the difference between 87 and 24
7.4*63=466.2
the answer is
466.2</span>
I think is
9 + x = 16 + 27
9 + x = 43
x = 52

whatever the amounts of "x" and "y" are, they must add up to 5Liters
thus x + y = 5
and whatever the concentrated quantity is in each, they must add up to (5)(0.14)
notice, that we use the decimal notation for the amount of juice concentration, that is, 15% is just 15/100 or 0.15, and 14% is just 14/100 or 0.14 and so on, recall that "whatever% of something" is just (whatever/100)*something
thus

solve for "x", to see how much of the 15% juice will be needed
what about "y"? well, y = 5 - x
Answer:
a)$15.95
b) 8kg
Step-by-step explanation:
a)Approach this question by finding how much does it cost for 1g
So,
$2.1/50=$0.042per gram
then, multiple 380 to get the cost of sweets for 380 g
$0.042/gram*380gram=$15.96(Note: the gram cancel out each other)
Which is $15.95 as the question requested
b)This question stated that 3/4 of the metal has 15 kg
So, in order to find the total mass of metal we invert the 3/4 fraction
e.g 4/3*15=20kg
now we have the total mass we can find the mass for 2/5 of the metal
2/5*20kg=8kg
