Let $\"+x+\"$ = the liters of color needed
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+2+-+x+\"$ = the liters of water needed
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3+%2F+2+=+x+%2F+%28+2+-+x+%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3%2A%28+2+-+x+%29++=+2x+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+6+-+3x+=+2x+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+5x+=+6+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+=+6%2F5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+=+1.2+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "1.2 liters of color is needed\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
