<PRE><B>Question 539577</B>
Natalie mixed 11 oz. of peanuts with 9 oz. of mixed nuts containing 60% peanuts. Peanuts are what percent of the new mixture? 
-----
peanuts + peanuts = peanuts
11 + 0.60*9 = x(11+9)
11 + 5.4 = 20x
16.4 = 20x
x = 0.82 or 82% (percent of peanuts in the final mixture)
