a bowl of nuts is prepared for a party . brand p mixed nuts are 20 % almonds and brand q ' s deluxe nuts are 25 % almonds . if a bowl contains a total of 66 ounces of nuts , representing a mixture of both brands , and 15 ounces of the mixture are almonds , how many ounces of brand q ' s deluxe mixed nuts are used ?
"lets say x ounces of p is mixed with q . = > 66 - x ounces of q is present in the mixture ( as the total = 66 ounces ) given total almond weight = 15 ounces ( 20 x / 100 ) + ( 25 / 100 ) ( 66 - x ) = 15 = > x = 30 = > 66 - 30 = 36 ounces of q is present in the mixture . answer is c ."
divide(subtract(15, multiply(divide(20, const_100), 66)), subtract(divide(25, const_100), divide(20, const_100)))
