How many liters of the 15% orange juice should be in the mixture? Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Percent ---------------- quantity
Juice I 15.00% ---------------- x liters
Juice II 5.00% ------ 10 - x liters
Mixture 6.00% ---------------- 10
Total 10 liters
15.00% x + 5.00% ( 10 - x ) = 6.00% * 10
15 x + 5 ( 10 - x ) = 60
15 x + 50 - 5 x = 60
15 x - 5 x = 60 - -50
10 x = 10
/ 10
x = 1 liter 15.00% Juice I
9 liters 5.00% Juice II
