x is 3 to2
\n" ); document.write( "3 alcohols to two parts water
\n" ); document.write( "3/5x (.60) is alcohol
\n" ); document.write( "combo is 3 to 4
\n" ); document.write( "3 parts alcohol and 7 parts water =3/10=.3 is
\n" ); document.write( "so .6x+nx=.3*2x
\n" ); document.write( ".6x+nx=.6x
\n" ); document.write( "nx=0
\n" ); document.write( "n=0
\n" ); document.write( "solution y is pure water 100% water
\n" ); document.write( "0:1\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
