Problema Solution
A farm stand owner mixes apple juice and cranberry juice. How much should he charge if he mixes 8L of apple juice selling for 45c/L with 10L of cranberry juice selling for $1.08/L?
Answer provided by our tutors
8 LT OF APPLE JUICE COSTS = 45 * 8 = 360 CENTS
10 LT OF CRANBERRY JUICE COSTS = 108 * 10 = 1080 CENTS
{ $ 1.08 = 108 CENTS }
SO ( 8 + 10 ) = 18 LTRS OF TOTAL JUICE COSTS ( 360 + 1080 ) CENTS = 1440 CENTS
SO EACH LITRE OF MIXED JUICE COSTS = 1440 / 18 = 80 CENTS
