The coffee Jim likes is composed of 98.5% water and 1.5% cocoa.
\n" ); document.write( " The coffee John likes is composed of 97% water and 3% cocoa.
\n" ); document.write( "How many ounces of water, x, should be added to 20 ounces of coffee that John likes to make the coffee that Jim likes?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "write an equation in terms of percent cocoa
\n" ); document.write( ".03(20) = .015(x+20)
\n" ); document.write( ".6 = .015x + .3
\n" ); document.write( ".6 - .3 = .015x
\n" ); document.write( ".3 = .015x
\n" ); document.write( "x = .3/.015
\n" ); document.write( "x = 20 oz of water added
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The original AMT of cocoa is unchanged
\n" ); document.write( ".03(20) = .6 oz is the original amt of cocoa
\n" ); document.write( "Check the percent
\n" ); document.write( ".6/20 = .03 Johns
\n" ); document.write( ".6/40 = .015 Jims
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
