\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "0.15x + 0.10(5-x) = 0.11*5
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 100:
\n" ); document.write( "15x + 10*5 - 10x = 11*5
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 5
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1 liter (amt. 15% oj needed)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "5-x = 4 liters (amt of 10% oj needed)
