How many liters of a 50% alcohol solution must be mixed with 80 liters if a 90% solution to get a 70% solution ?
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "alc. + alc. = alc
\n" ); document.write( "0.50x + 0.90*80 = 0.70(x+80)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "50x + 90*80 = 70x + 70*80
\n" ); document.write( "20x = 20*80
\n" ); document.write( "x = 80 liters (amt. of 50% solution to add)
