Hi

 = 30% of the total cost he has saved.

make a mixture of peanuts and walnuts that cost $2.70 per pound. 
how many pounds of peanuts at $1.50 per pound should be with 
24 pounds of walnuts at $3.50 per pound
(3.50) 24 + 1.50x = 2.70(x + 24) = 2.70x + (2.70)24
    .80(24)/1.20 = 16lbs of peanuts  should be added

In the future, Post in the traditional fashion.
Wish You the Best in your Studies.

Divide the amount saved by the total cost, move the decimal point two places to the right, affix a percent sign.
