Problema Solution

How many cup of juice must be added to 30 cup of punch that is 8% grapefruit juice, to obtain a punch that is 10% grapefruit?

Answer provided by our tutors

x + 0.08*30 = 0.10(x+30)

Multiply by 100 to get:

100x + 8*30 = 10x + 10*30

90x = 2*30

x = 2/3 of a cup of 100% grapejuice must be added.
