A + B = 70 therefore B = 70 - A
\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
\n" ); document.write( "0.59A + 0.94(70 - A) = 0.69(70)
\n" ); document.write( "0.59A + 65.8 - 0.94A = 48.3
\n" ); document.write( "-0.35A = -17.5 divide, remember -/- = +
\n" ); document.write( "A = 50
\n" ); document.write( "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
\n" ); document.write( "So, 50 cups of the 59% solution should be mixed with 70 - 50 = 20 cups of 94% solution to get 70 cups of a 69% solution
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
