This is exactly like the one with the 'n's that you posted yesterday.
I guess you didn't get enough help on that one to understand it.
<span><u>7k/8 - 3/4 - 5k/16 = 3/8</u>
3/4 is the same as 6/8.
Add it to each side of the equation:
7k/8 - 5k/16 = 9/8
Multiply each side by 16 :
14k - 5k = 18
Add up the 'k's on the left side:
9k = 18
From this point, you can proceed directly to the numerical value of 'k'
if you need it.<u />
In your question, you said you need help, and I showed you how to
strip the problem down so that the only thing left is ' k = something '.
Giving you the answer is no help. Nobody actually needs the answer.

Yes it is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
60 oz of water to add
45 oz of 35% salt solution should be used
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = amt no. ounces in the first solution
and 105 - x = amt no. of ounces in the second solution
Ist solution contains 0% salt
2nd solution contains .35(105 - x) salt
.15(105= amt of salt in mix
So.
amt of salt in 1st solution + amt of salt in 2nd solution = amt of salt in the mix
0 + .35(105 - x) = .15(105)
Let's get rid of the fractions by multipying thru the equation by 100
35(105 - x) = 15(105)
3675 - 35x = 1575
-35x = -2100
x = 60 oz of water to add
105 - 60 = 45 oz of 35% salt solution should be used
