"Bucket method"
.. (4)*(14%) + (x)*(8%) = (4 +x)*(10%) . . . . . liters and % are in each "bucket"
.. 56 +8x = 40 +10x . . . . . multiply by 100, eliminate parentheses
.. 16 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -40-8x, then divide by 2
.. 8 = x
8 liters of 8% lemonade should be added to make the mixture 10% lemon juice.
Step-by-step explanation:
from the line above
P1 = -2
P2 = -1
P3 = 1/3
P4 = 2/3
P5 = 1 1/2 = 3/2
The product of P1 to P5,P
=> P = -2×-1×1/3×2/3×3/2 = 2/3
Hi!
We will solve this using proportions, like this:
3/4 cup for 8 slices of pie
x cup for 48 slices of pie
_______________________
x = ((3/4)*48)/8
x = (3*48)/(4*8)
x = 144/32
x = 4,5
You need 4 1/2 cups of white sugar for 48 slices of pie.
Hope this helps!
