You can put this solution on YOUR website!
oil/gas=4/16 or 1/4 so to get 24 liters of mix you need 4 times as much gas as oil.
\n" ); document.write( "o+4o=24
\n" ); document.write( "5o=24
\n" ); document.write( "o=24/5
\n" ); document.write( "o=4.8 liters of oil mixed with
\n" ); document.write( "4*4.8=19.2 liters of gas to give you 24 liters of a 1/4 mix p
\n" ); document.write( "proof
\n" ); document.write( "4.8+19.2=24
\n" ); document.write( "24=24 &
\n" ); document.write( "4.8/19.2=1/4 cross multiplying we get
\n" ); document.write( "19.2=19.2
