--------percent ---------------- quantity
\n" ); document.write( "Antifreeze I 15 ---------------- 60 gal
\n" ); document.write( "Antifreeze II 70 ---------------- x gal
\n" ); document.write( "Mixture 60 ---------------- 60 + x gal
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "15*60+70x=60( 60 + x )
\n" ); document.write( "900 + 70 x = 3600 + 60 x
\n" ); document.write( "70 x + -60 x = 3600 - -900
\n" ); document.write( "10 x = 2700
\n" ); document.write( "/ 10
\n" ); document.write( "x = 270
\n" ); document.write( " 270 gal of 70 % Antifreeze II
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
