Question 1039019: A chemist has three different acid solutions. The first acid solution contains
25% acid, the second contains
35% and the third contains

55%. He wants to use all three solutions to obtain a mixture of
90 liters containing
45% acid, using
3 times as much of the

55% solution as the

35% solution. How many liters of each solution should be used?

x,y,z for 25%,35%,55% acid solutions

is given in description.

Pure acid in the result solution will be 45*90, counting in percent.



Study that system and attend it to understand. Once understood, solve the system.
