Change to concentrations as fraction as milk.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Vessel A: \"5%2F7\"
\n" ); document.write( "Vessel B: \"8%2F13\"
\n" ); document.write( "Expected Mixture Revision: \"9%2F13\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Taking just a guess, trying to finish having a total number of \"7%2A13=91\" parts.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Taking x parts from vessel A and y parts from vessel be for a total of 91 parts and expected this concentration of \"9%2F13\".....\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28%285%2F7%29x%2B%288%2F13%29y%29%2F91=%289%2F13%29\" and \"x%2By=91\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "When the set of equations makes sense, then you can finish solving for x and y and their ratio with no real trouble, but just several algebra steps. You may want to begin by multiplying the rational or complex fractional equation's left side by 1 in the form of \"91%2F91\".
