The same question is asked in so many different ways.

v units of a H% material is mixed with u units of L% material. what is the % concentration of the resulting mixture?

Letting T = the percent concentration of the resulting blend,
highlight%28%28uL%2BvH%29%2F%28u%2Bv%29=T%29. Substitute the values from the example problem description.
