Percent ---------------- quantity
\n" ); document.write( "Solution I 40.00% ---------------- x ml
\n" ); document.write( "Solution II 61.00% ------ 7 - x ml
\n" ); document.write( "Mixture 55.00% ---------------- 7
\n" ); document.write( "Total 7 ml
\n" ); document.write( "40.00% x + 61.00% ( 7 - x ) = 55.00% * 7
\n" ); document.write( "40 x + 61 ( 7 - x ) = 385
\n" ); document.write( "40 x + 427 - 61 x = 385
\n" ); document.write( "40 x - 61 x = 385 - -427
\n" ); document.write( "-21 x = -42
\n" ); document.write( "/ -21
\n" ); document.write( " x = 2 ml 40.00% Solution I
\n" ); document.write( " 5 ml 61.00% Solution II
