So hmm the food C = 6p + 3q and the food D = 4.5p + 1.5q
now, if we check how much is the ratios of C/D for each component, then, mixture M = 144p + 60q, must contain the same ratio for each "p" and "q" component
![\bf \textit{ratio of "p"}\implies \cfrac{6}{4.5}\implies \cfrac{4}{3} \\\\\\ \textit{ratio of "q"}\implies \cfrac{3}{1.5}\implies \cfrac{2}{1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Ctextit%7Bratio%20of%20%22p%22%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B6%7D%7B4.5%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B4%7D%7B3%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A%5Ctextit%7Bratio%20of%20%22q%22%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B3%7D%7B1.5%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B2%7D%7B1%7D)
so, if we divide the 144p by 4+3, or 7 even pieces, 4 must belong to food C and 3 to food D, retaining the ratio of 4/3
and we do the same for 60q, we divide it in 2+1 or 3 even pieces, but that one is very clear, 2 must belong to food C and 1 to food D, 60/3 is clear ends up with a ratio of 40 and 20
now the "p" part... ends up as
![\bf \cfrac{144}{7}\cdot 4\qquad and\qquad \cfrac{144}{7}\cdot 3\implies \cfrac{576}{7}\qquad and\qquad \cfrac{432}{7}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Ccfrac%7B144%7D%7B7%7D%5Ccdot%204%5Cqquad%20and%5Cqquad%20%5Ccfrac%7B144%7D%7B7%7D%5Ccdot%203%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7B576%7D%7B7%7D%5Cqquad%20and%5Cqquad%20%5Ccfrac%7B432%7D%7B7%7D)
that's what I see it, as the ratio of 4/3 and 2/1 being retained in the mixture M
42 acres to 72 acres, there is an increase of 30 acres
percentage wise
72-42=30
30/72=.4166...
therefore there is also a 41.6% increase
