notice, that, pure juice is 100% juice, dohhh, thus 100/100 = 1.00
50% is 50/100 or 0.50 in decimal format
so..... whatever those two quantities amount to, that is, the 50% and pure juice, or (4)(0.50) + (x)(1.00)
they will equal the mixture desired 60% juice, or 0.60, namely (4+x)(0.60)
thus (4)(0.50) + (x)(1.00) = (4+x)(0.60)
solve for "x"
the volume scales by (1/10)^3. so it would be 48.875*10^-3.
You have to use the quadratic formula to solve this. The zeros of this quadratic are 2 + sqrt2/2 and 2 - sqrt2/2, which in "real" numbers is 1.707 and .2928
The answer to your question is 2 hope this helps!
