Question 1025153: A coffee shop blends it's own coffee and sells it in one kilogram tins.
One blend consists of two kinds of coffee, Brazilian and Colombian, in the ratio of 2:3
The shop has 20 kilograms of Brazilian and 25 kilograms of Colombian in stock.
What is the MAXIMUM number of one kilogram tins of this blend which can be made

So calculate how many kilos you can make with the Colombian since you use more of it.
Each kilo uses 2/5 kilo of Brazilian and 3/5 kilo of Colombian.
So you can make 41 kilos of the mix and you'll have 2/5 of a kilo left over of the Colombian.
You'll have kilos of Brazilian left.
