Let x = cups of pure grapefruit juice added
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"amt added\" + \"amt in original\" = \"desired mix\"
\n" ); document.write( "x + .08(30) = .10(30+x)
\n" ); document.write( "x + 2.4 = 3 + .10x
\n" ); document.write( ".90x + 2.4 = 3
\n" ); document.write( ".90x = 0.6
\n" ); document.write( "x = 0.6/.90
\n" ); document.write( "x = 0.6667
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2/3 cups
\n" ); document.write( "
