help please !!!Kevin wants to make a mixture that is 50% lemon juice and 50% lime juice. How much 100% lemon juice should he add to a juice that is 40% lemon juice and 60% lime juice to make 6 gal of the 50% lemon/50% lime juice mixture?

Sagot :

so basically, he wants to make mixture where lemon=lime

it is 6 gallons so
40% of 6=0.4 times 60=2.4=lemon
60% of 6=0.6 times 60=3.6=lime
so to make them equal
3.6-2.4=1.2
he must add 1.2 gallons of 100% lemon juice to make a mixture of 50% lemon and 50% lime

1.2 gallons is the answer
