Let x be the amount of Ann money, y be Jessica's money and z Mary money.
30% of z equates 0.3*z.
Ann has 30% less than z so: x = z - 0.3z = 0.7z.
70% of z equates 0.7z.
"Jessica has 70% more than Mary " we deduce the equation: y =z+0.7z= 1.7z.
Signe the total is $102, we deduce the equation x+y+z = 102.
x=0.7z and y=1.7z then 0.7z+1.7z+z=102, therefore 3.4z=102 then
z =102/3.4 = $30.
x=0.7*30= 21 and y=1.7*30=51.
Ann has $21, Mary has $30 and Jessica has $51.

6 liters of brand A fruit punch must be mixed with 9 L of brand b fruit punch.
Let x=liters of Brand A fruit punch to be mixed with 9 liters of Brand B fruit punch.
x + 9 = liters of mixture.
20%(x) + 9*40% = 32%(x+9)
20/100 x + 9*40/100 = 32/100 (x+9)
0.2x + 360/100 = 0.32x + 9*0.32
0.2x + 3.6 = 0.32x + 2.88
0.12x = 3.6 - 2.88
0.12x = 0.72
divide by 0.12 on both sides
x = 0.72/0.12
= 72/100/12/100
= 72/12
= 6 liters.
Therefore 6 liters of brand A fruit punch must be mixed with 9 L of brand b fruit punch.
