If they are similar, their sides are proportional. The scale factor would be 20/28, which is 5/7.

5/7 = 3x/4x+2
Cross multiply
20x+10 = 21x
subtract 20x on both sides
10 = x

x = 10

givi [52]

Given :

An alloy is a mixture of metals. Suppose that a certain alloy is made by mixing 50 g of an alloy containing 12% copper with 78 g of an alloy containing 92% copper.

To Find :

How many grams of copper are in the resulting mixture what percentage of the resulting mixture is copper.

Solution :

Mass of copper in 50 gm alloy = 50\times 0.12 = 6\ gram.

Mass of copper in 78 gm alloy = 78\times 0.98 = 76.44\ gram.

Total mass of copper, ( 6 + 76.44 ) gm = 82.44 gram.

Percentage of copper in resulting mixture :

\%=\dfrac{82.44}{50+78}\\\\\%=64.4\ \%

Hence, this is the required solution.
