.06*90=.054(90+x)
\n" ); document.write( "5.4=4.86+.054x
\n" ); document.write( ".054x=5.4-4.86
\n" ); document.write( ".054x=.54
\n" ); document.write( "x=.54/.054
\n" ); document.write( "x=10 oz. of water is needed.
\n" ); document.write( "Proof:
\n" ); document.write( ".06*90=.054(90+10)
\n" ); document.write( "5.4=.054*100
\n" ); document.write( "5.4=5.4
