Let $\"x\"$ equal the amount of the 30% solution to use
\n" ); document.write( "Let $\"w\"$ equal the amount of water to use
\n" ); document.write( " $\"w+%2B+x+=+30\"$ L
\n" ); document.write( " $\".3x+%2F+%28x%2Bw%29+=+.1\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\".3x+%2F+30+=+.1\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+10\"$ L answer
\n" ); document.write( " $\"w+=+30+-+10\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"w+=+20\"$ L answer \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
