\n" ); document.write( "I will assume this is from the same person who submitted the other very similar problem at the same time....

\n" ); document.write( "The target 40% is 1/3 of the way from the lower 30% concentration to the higher 60% concentration. That means 1/3 of the mixture must be the higher concentration.

\n" ); document.write( "1/3 of 60 liters is 20 liters. So

\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: 20 liters of 60%; 40 liters of 30%
