Question 1061582: A 50% dye solution is to be mixed with a 75% dye solution to get 100L of a 65% solution. How much liters of the 50% Andy 75% solution will be needed

Let n be the amount of 75% solution. Then the 50% solution is 100-n. So:
.75n+.5(100-n)=.65(100)
.25n=15
n=60
You need 60L of 75% solution; and 40L of 50% solution. ☺☺☺☺
