24 oz of juice P and 25 oz of juice V are mixed to make smothies L and Y . The ratio of p to V in smothie L is 4 is to 1 and that in Y is 1is to 5.How many ounces of juice P are contained in the smothie L?  Choices:	A) 5	B) 10	C) 15	D) 20	E) 25
The ratio of p to V in smothie L is 4 is to 1 and that in Y is 1is to 5.p1 + p2 = 24   v1 + v2 = 25   p1 = 4v1   p2 = v2/5   4v1 + v2/5 = 24   v1 + v2 = 25   4v2 - v2/5 = 76   19v2/5 = 76 =&gt; v2 = 20   =&gt; v1 = 5   =&gt; p1 = 20   Answer - 20
