1) 15 l - 100%
\n" ); document.write( " x l - 20%
\n" ); document.write( "x=(15*20)/100 = 3 l mixture = 15 l+3 l = 18 l
\n" ); document.write( " P= (3 * 100)/ 18= 100 /6 = 16.66%\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2) x+y =50
\n" ); document.write( " 8x+18y=50*14\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " x+y=50
\n" ); document.write( " 8x+18y=700
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " 18x+18y=900
\n" ); document.write( " 8x+18y=700
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( " 10x=200 x=20kg p=(20/50)*100=40%\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3) 20 - 90% =18kg
\n" ); document.write( "Add x - 0% 0kg\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " 20+x - 100%
\n" ); document.write( " 18 - 75%\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " (20+x)*75= 18*100
\n" ); document.write( " x=4 kg \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
