I like to use an X diagram to solve problems like this. The constituent percentages are on the left, the desired mix is in the middle and the numbers on the diagonals are the difference between the mix and the constituent.

The numbers 6 and 24 here represent the ratio of 40% to 10% chocolate. That 6:24 ratio can be reduced to 1:4. The sum of those ratio units is 1+4 = 5, so each must represent (200 kg)/5 = 40 kg of chocolate.

The mix must consist of
   40 kg of 40% fat chocolate
   160 kg of 10% fat chocolate

A lawn mower is pushed a distance of 100 ft. Along a horizontal path by a constant force of 60 lbs. Yhe handle of the lawn mower
olga2289 [7]
For this case we have the following equation:
 w = || F || • || PQ || costheta
 Where,
 || F ||: force vector module
 || PQ ||: distance module
 costheta: cosine of the angle between the force vector and the distance vector.
 Substituting values:
 w = (60) * (100) * (cos (45))
 w = 4242.640687 lb.ft
 Answer:
 
The work done pushing the lawn mower is: 
 w = 4242.640687 lb.ft
