\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "grape + grape = grape
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "x + 0.08*30 = 0.10(x+30)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 100 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "100x + 8*30 = 10x + 10*30
\n" ); document.write( "90x = 2*30
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2/3 of a cup of 100% grapejuice must be added.
