represent the amount of 79% sugar drink. Then the amount of 1% sugar drink that will be present in the 120 ml new solution is

. Since 79% of

is the amount of sugar in

ml of 79% sugar drink, 1% of

is the amount of sugar in the 1% sugar drink, and 66% of 120 is the amount of sugar in the new solution, the following relation must hold:\r
