how many liters of a 20% alcohol solution should be added to a 450 L solution which contain 35% alcohol so that the resulting mixture will be 30% alcohol.
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation::
\n" ); document.write( "alch + alch = alch
\n" ); document.write( "0.2x + 0.35*450 = 0.3(x+450)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "20x + 35*450 = 30x + 30*450
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "10x = 5*450
\n" ); document.write( "x = 225 L (amt. of 20% solution needed)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
