4) Natalie has a brand of peanut oil, which has 30% oil.
\n" ); document.write( "Stephanie has a brand of olive oil, which has 70% oil.
\n" ); document.write( "Natalie and Stephanie combined their oils and made 1 5/12 quarts of a new oil called nutlive oil.
\n" ); document.write( "if the nutlive oil contains 51 3/17% oil, how many quarts
\n" ); document.write( "of olive oil did they use?
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "51 3/17% = 0.5118
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "oil + oil = oil
\n" ); document.write( "0.30x + 0.70(17/12) = 0.5118(x+ 1.4167)
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 10,000 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "3000x + 9916.9 = 5118x + 7251
\n" ); document.write( "2118x = 2665.9
\n" ); document.write( "x = 1.2587 quarts (# of quarts of olive oil needed)
