1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
238 gallons 7% 119 gallons 1% Step-by-step explanation:
Let h represent the number of gallons of high butterfat content milk. Then 357-h will be the number of gallons of 1% milk. The total amount of butterfat in the mix is ...
0.07h +0.01(357 -h) = 0.05(357)
0.06h = 14.28 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3.57, collect terms
h = 238 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.06
357-h = 357 -238 = 119
238 gallons of 7% and 119 gallons of 1% are needed .
