0.10x+0.35(55-x) = 0.18(55)
\n" ); document.write( "0.10x+19.25-0.35x = 9.9
\n" ); document.write( "-0.25x = -9.35
\n" ); document.write( "x = 37.4
\n" ); document.write( "He will need 37.4ml of the 10% solution, and:
\n" ); document.write( "55-37.4 = 17.6ml of the 35% solution
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
