yogurt that is 3% fat with its no-fat yogurt to obtain lowfat
yogurt that is 1% fat. How many pounds of regular
yogurt and how many pounds of no-fat yogurt should
be mixed to obtain 60 pounds of low-fat yogurt?
----------------------------------------
Equation:
fat + fat = fat
0.05x + 0.00(60-x) = = 0.01*60
6x = 60
x = 10 lbs (amount of 5% yogurt in the mix)
60-x = 50 lbs. (amount of 0% yogurt in the mix)
