\"+.18%2A60+=+10.8+\" grams of copper in 18% alloy
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "(a)
\n" ); document.write( "\"+60+%2B+100+=+160+\" grams in resulting mixture
\n" ); document.write( "(b)
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+10.8+%2B+100+%29+%2F+160+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+110.8+%2F160+=+.6925+\"
\n" ); document.write( "69.25% of the mixture is copper
\n" ); document.write( "check answer:
\n" ); document.write( " 100 - 69.25 = 30.75% is NOT copper
\n" ); document.write( "\"+.82%2A60+=+49.2+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+49.2+%2F+160+=+.3075+\"
\n" ); document.write( "30.75% is not copper
\n" ); document.write( "OK
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
