Question 383323: Beer A is 6% alcohol, Beer B is 2% alcohol.
how many liters of beer A should be mixed in order to get 50 liters of mixture that is 3.2% alcohol.
solution A + B = 50 liter

2.
Now you have two equations in two unknowns.
Subtract eq. 1 from eq. 2 to eliminate B and solve for A.
Then go back to either equation and solve for A.
