\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"12x%2B60=180\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"12x=120\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=10\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Also look at 36% compared to 12%.
\n" ); document.write( "Concentration cut to one-third. Increase only the volume by 3, but to not change the total quantity of soap. Fifteen total finished liters, so 15-5=10.
