Question 1147563
.


            The formula    {{{highlight_green(x=25((82-22)/(97-2)))}}}    which @josgarithmetic presents as a final answer,  is  INCORRECT,


            So I came to present the correct solution.



<pre>
x of 97%

25-x of 22%

0.97*x + 0.22*(25-x) = 0.92*25

0.97x + 0.22*25 - 0.22x = 92*25

(0.97-0.22)x = 0.92*25 - 0.22*25

x = {{{(0.92*25 - 0.22*25)/(0.97-0.22)}}} = 23.333.


<U>ANSWER</U>.  23.333 mL of the drink B and (25-23.333) = 1.666 mL of the drink A.


<U>CHECK</U>.   {{{(0.97*23.333 + 0.22*1.666)/25}}} = 0.92,   which is CORRECT concentration value.
</pre>

Solved.
