24 oz of juice p and 25 oz of juice v are mixed to make smothies m and y . the ratio of p to v in smothie m is 4 is to 1 and that in y is 1 is to 5 . how many ounces of juice p are contained in the smothie m ?
the ratio of p to v in smothie m is 4 is to 1 and that in y is 1 is to 5 . p 1 + p 2 = 24 v 1 + v 2 = 25 p 1 = 4 v 1 p 2 = v 2 / 5 4 v 1 + v 2 / 5 = 24 v 1 + v 2 = 25 4 v 2 - v 2 / 5 = 76 19 v 2 / 5 = 76 = > v 2 = 20 = > v 1 = 5 = > p 1 = 20 answer - d
multiply(divide(subtract(multiply(24, 5), 25), subtract(multiply(4, 5), 1)), 4)
