You can put this solution on YOUR website! Twenty ounces of a 50% gold alloy are mixed with 80 oz of a 30% gold alloy. Find the percent concentration of the resulting gold alloy.
-------
gold + gold = gold
0.50*20 + 0.30*80 = x(20+80)
-----
50*20 + 30*80 = 10000x
----
1000 + 2400 = 10000x
10000x = 3400
x = 0.34 or 34%
