Answer:
<h2>400 L of orange punch</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
step one:
given data
orange punch is 45% juice and
mango punch is 20% juice.
amount of fruit punch to be made is
500 L of a fruit punch that is 40% juice.
Let x = the number of liters of orange punch in the fruit punch.
Then the number of liters of mango is 500 - x
The number of liters of orange + mango juice is
0.45x + 0.2(500 - x), and this must equal the number of liters
in the fruit punch, which is 0.4*500
0.45x + 100 - 0.2x = 200
solve for x
0.45x-0.2x+100-200=0
0.25x-100=0
0.25x = 100
x=100/0.25
x = 400 L
<u>400 L of orange punch</u>
